[Pw_forum] Velocity and Temperature control in MD

[Vipul Shivaji Ghemud]

Hi all,
I want to do MD for my system. In this I want to raise the temperature of
the system above its melting point (say 500K) and then hold it there for
next 1000 iterations at same temperature.  I have tried raising the
temperature but I don't know how to hold it at specific temp and do
further 1000 iterations for the same temp. Also, how can we specify
initial velocity? Please suggest the same.
