Hi dears,

I am wondering if when you want to use the input_dft='dft+d2' input_dft='dft+ts', you also need to take account of special factors to properly run a simulation?

I ask this because I have a general problem in using these XC-f corrections, for many different systems as pure metals or oxided metals crystals, pervoskites, organic polymer (vdW should be really matter only in polymers where there are axis not constrained by chemical bonds as in metals), I can not conclude a VC-relaxation, it always crashes because the cell becomes so small that more or less 30 k-points are too much to fit the cell.

The only thing I change to use this XC-f (in respect of other simulations for the same system with different XC-f) is giving explicitly the flag "input_dft" with Grimme or Tkatchenko-Scheffler dispersion forces correction (dft+d2 of dft+ts respectively), but it never works.

So, Am I probably missing something on input files settings to let these XC-f to do their jobs?

Thank you very much for the time and patience !

Kindest Regards

Francesco
