Dear Megha,

The char yield of polymers varies widely with the structure, it can be determined only empirically, see e.g.

fatal error

When I tried to energy minimization my system, I got fatal error as below. Fatal error: Atomtype opls_116 not found Although I've already added this line: ; include water #include "oplsaa.ff/spc.itp" to [molecultype] directive in my topology.
