Hi everyone

I have simple question regarding using tabulated potentials with gromacs.

I performed two same simulations, except one using LJ parameters, and one using tabulated potential by discretizing same function and using tabulated potential (f,g,h=0 for r< 0.04). The only differences in the mdp files are:

1st:

vdw-type=Cut-off, coulombtype=Cut-off

2nd:

vdw-type=user, coulombtype=user.

Besides I did all the modifications needed to preserve reproduciblity of results based on gromacs manual. But I still get very slight different results (Temperature, Potential, pressure, etc, less that 3% different for each).

Does anyone have any idea why this happens? I highly appreciate your responses regarding this issue.

Thanks

Best
