If you have a structure with high symmetry such that the atom positions are not variables, then you do not relax the positions. Do not change one unless you have a really good physical reason, otherwise GIGO. On Mon, May 22, 2017 at 4:06 PM, fatima DFT wrote: > Dear Dr.

[Wien] force optimisation for a high symmetry direction

2017-05-22 Thread fatima DFT
Dear Dr. Tran, I just finished the calculation for structure relaxation using: min -j 'runsp_lapw -p -ec 0.0001 -cc 0.001 -i 800 -fc 2 -NI' at the output it seems to me that my structure converses without any problem but in job file I see an error: and I am getting below message: Image

Thank you Sir, I could not understand the reply completely. Please make it little easy up to level of a DFT beginner. What I supposed to do is: use a 2x2x2 mesh in QE and go to higher mesh till I get desired accuracy in ENE or DIS conversance. Suppose I got the 8x8x8 mesh where my conversance

Re: [Wien] kpoint optimization

Yes if the QE and WIEN2k k-meshes are exactly the same. They may differ because of an applied shift for instance. This may be more difficult for metals because of the different treatment close to the Fermi energy (smearing vs. Tetrahedron), but maybe this is not that crucial. On Monday

Dear Wien2k users, Is it possible that we optimize the number of k-point using Quantum espresso and then use optimized mesh in Wien2k? Warm regards Fatima ___ Wien mailing list Wien@zeus.theochem.tuwien.ac.at

Sure. That's what you normally do as long as you don't include SO interaction. ... x optic -c -up x joint -up x kram -up And then you get case.epsilonup Repeat the same with switches -dn and get case.epsilondn These two (permittivities) have to be added up to get what you measure e.g.

The Traceback error message is from python. Its trying to do what berrypi tells it to do, so module berrypi is found and probably installed ok. However, berrypi wants python to import numpy - and that is not found. Most probably something went wrong when you installed numpy (or
