Dear Justin

Thank you for the quick reply

Dear All users

I want my energy minimization of my system is converged to considered
value, when i do it,

It is converged because it reachs to Fmax and i see this message :

Steepest Descents converged to Fmax < 10 in 31702 steps
Potential Energy  = -1.6531438e+03
Maximum force     =  9.8014317e+00 on atom 162
Norm of force     =  2.9060462e+00

my result:

When i represent profile of potential energy by g_energy, i can't see
my considered results,

I should reach this result that this link is related to it,

That's right, I knew it but in your opinion, How can i get same
result, What's the value of emtol for my system?

I do not know my emtol value, How can i determine it?


emtol is simply a target value for the maximum force to reach during energy minimization. I don't know that there is a terribly scientific way to determine what it should be, except for NMA calculations where it is particularly important. The goal of EM is to achieve a reasonably stable system that is at an energy minimum and can be simulated further.
