g_covar_d: calculates and diagonalizes the covariance matrix

NAME

g_covar - calculates and diagonalizes the covariance matrix

VERSION 4.0.1

SYNOPSIS

g_covar -f traj.xtc -s topol.tpr -n index.ndx -o eigenval.xvg -v eigenvec.trr -av average.pdb -l covar.log -ascii covar.dat -xpm covar.xpm -xpma covara.xpm -[no]h -nice int -b time -e time -dt time -tu enum -[no]xvgr -[no]fit -[no]ref -[no]mwa -last int -[no]pbc

DESCRIPTION

g_covar calculates and diagonalizes the (mass-weighted) covariance matrix. All structures are fitted to the structure in the structure file. When this is not a run input file periodicity will not be taken into account. When the fit and analysis groups are identical and the analysis is non mass-weighted, the fit will also be non mass-weighted.

The eigenvectors are written to a trajectory file ( -v). When the same atoms are used for the fit and the covariance analysis, the reference structure for the fit is written first with t=-1. The average (or reference when -ref is used) structure is written with t=0, the eigenvectors are written as frames with the eigenvector number as timestamp.

The eigenvectors can be analyzed with g_anaeig.

Option -ascii writes the whole covariance matrix to an ASCII file. The order of the elements is: x1x1, x1y1, x1z1, x1x2, ...

Option -xpm writes the whole covariance matrix to an xpm file.

Option -xpma writes the atomic covariance matrix to an xpm file, i.e. for each atom pair the sum of the xx, yy and zz covariances is written.
