It performs also the simple task of just changing “VEL” to “CORD”. Please check the examples listed using the –h flag. For example check the last examples which are mostly related to VMD specifically like:<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <![if !supportLists]>- <![endif]>dumpdcd -o new.dcd -of dcd -vel2cord old.dcd (dump old.dcd as new.dcd and change only the DCD id string from VEL to CORD)<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> This is fixes the issue we are discussing here. I am also reluctant in changing VEL to CORD for CP2K vel files, because one would loose the information about the type of that file.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Please note, that dumpdcd.f90 provides even more advanced functionalities for conversion which sometimes might make the use of VMD for such purposes dispensable, like<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <![if !supportLists]>- <![endif]>Output of an “atomic temperature”<o:p></o:p> <![if !supportLists]>- <![endif]>Application of periodic boundary conditions (PBC), i.e. “folding back” atoms to the original cell)<o:p></o:p> <![if !supportLists]>- <![endif]>Extraction of a subset of configurations (frames): scope by first and last frame, optionally with a stride<o:p></o:p> <![if !supportLists]>- <![endif]>Concatenation of several DCD files<o:p></o:p> <![if !supportLists]>- <![endif]>Dump in XMOL format<o:p></o:p> <![if !supportLists]>- <![endif]>List of atoms leaving the box (given a threshold value)<o:p></o:p> <![if !supportLists]>- <![endif]>Displacement of the atoms w.r.t. the first (original) configuration<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Here is the full list of examples available with the –h flag:<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> dumpdcd UO2-2x2x2-pos-1.dcd (without atomic labels from XYZ file)<o:p></o:p> dumpdcd -xyz UO2-2x2x2.xyz UO2-2x2x2-pos-1.dcd (single DCD file)<o:p></o:p> dumpdcd -xyz UO2-2x2x2.xyz UO2-2x2x2-pos-1.dcd UO2-2x2x2-pos-2.dcd ...

Januar 2016 11:10 To: cp2k Subject: Re: [CP2K:7381] Re: Velocity DCD file broken<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <div> Hey Matthias, IMHO I wouldn't expect any DCD code out there to accept something else to be the magic string than "CORD", therefore the greatest benefit might just be, being able to load the files without trouble. In VMD in particular, one don't want to actually visualize the data like coordinates, but use VMD mechanisms of file and trajectory processing for analysation purpose, e.g temperature distributions along various atom types /elements.
