Re: [Pw_forum] Errors in test-suite qe-6.0 and qe-6.1 how bad ?

2017-03-27 Thread Paolo Giannozzi
Tests for CP are not very significant: they test energies after a few MD steps, but even tiny differences quickly lead to different MD trajectories. The numbers you get are rather close to the numbers in tests, so likely nothing to worry about Paolo On Thu, Mar 23, 2017 at 5:35 PM, Thibaut VERY

I do not think tetrahedra work with a user-provided list of k-points. In the input documentation, it is explicitly specified that an automatic uniform grid must be provided. Paolo On Fri, Mar 24, 2017 at 9:48 AM, Oier Arcelus wrote: > > Dear All, > > > I know that this

I actually found out the "problem" (which isn't one): the displacement patterns are stored in the axsf as forces, which means that the atoms do not move but you can have an arrow on each atom pointing toward the direction of motion. Click "Display -> Forces" (or tap the letter "f") to show
