Hello all,
I am currently trying to simulate a melt-quench process on a catalyst
surface using NVT BOMD. From what I understand in cp.x documentation, it is
necessary to first relax the system (with either pw.x or cp.x) and then
introduce some random displacement via cp.x. My calculation returns the
error below when I am trying to introduce random displacement in my relaxed
structure:
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Error in routine tqli (200):
too many iterations
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Attached below are part of my input script:

I have been struggling with this error for several days, any advice is
appreciated, thanks!
