[Wien] scf

2012-11-18 Thread Mourad Karima
Dear All

I'm studying a 8 atoms supercell of Antiferromgnetic (the rare earth)
In runs I'm getting the problem' there is energy in ? ? SCF NOT CONVERGED 
kGEN =150
kmax=9
gmax=14

this is my last case.inm

MSEC1? 0.0?? YES? (BROYD/PRATT, extra charge (+1 for additional e), norm)
0.20??? mixing FACTOR for BROYD/PRATT scheme
1.00? 1.00? PW and CLM-scaling factors
? 8 idum, HISTORY

so I must stopping the runs or what ? ? I repeat the calculation?

what is this problem due to ? ?

thanks

What Wien2k version are you using? What cycle did it stop at?

I think you get energy in SCF NOT CONVERGED when the :ENERGY 
convergence value in the case.dayfile has not met the energy 
convergence criteria value that you specified.

If the :ENERGY convergence value is decreasing and stopped after cycle 
40, then you probably just need to run more cycles.  By default, the 
maximum number of cycles is 40.  You can do runsp_lapw -NI to run up 
to another 40 cycles or you could specify the maximum number of cycles, 
for example 80 cycles, with runsp_lapw -i 80 (include also -NI if you 
are continuing a calculation instead of starting a new calculation).

If the :ENERGY convergence value is oscillating, then the calculation 
will likely never convergence (is divergent).  From what I have seen on 
the mailing list, I think the suggested solution that usually works is 
to use PRATT for a few cycles (sometimes using the mixing factor of 
0.1), then switch back to MSEC1.  I suppose you could also try another 
mixer scheme such as MSR1 (which has replaced MSEC1 as the recommended 
default one in Wien2k 12.1).

There is also a smaller possibility that it is caused from a bug in the 
Wien2k version that you are using.  You can check the update list 
(http://www.wien2k.at/reg_user/updates/) to see if there is something 
that might affect your calculation.

[Wien] minor bug: mixer

2012-11-18 Thread Laurence Marks
Can you please send a test case, perhaps direct to my email. Thanks.

 Dear Wien2k users,

 I found a small bug for mixer, Wien2k012.
 in the SRC_mixer/nn.f,
 subroutine ORD2(DISTS,NR,NC) might cause crash in the special case where
 NC=1,
 when the condition, [ NR(2) in the previous memory  NR(1) ] holds

 at the very end of nn.f,
 50 NR(I)=I
 !!
 if (imax.eq.1) return   !! this line should be inserted as original nn.f in
 SRC_mixer/nn.f
 !!
 100 I=1

 Best, Kyoo

[Wien] Regarding J projected DOS

2012-11-18 Thread rup_swa...@yahoo.com
Dear All
I find in the user guide of Wien2k that using the qtl program, it is possible 
to calculate the J-projected PDOS in the presence of SOC. I will be very happy
if someone let me know the references where J-projected PDOS is reported from 
the Wien2k calculations.? 
Thanking you.
