[Pw_forum] error two atoms overlap

2012-03-27 Thread GAO Zhe
Since your system is simple cubic, and your first and second atoms position are 
(0,0,0) and (-1,0,0), which are both at the vertex position of a cubic, thus 
the 1st and 2nd atoms at exactly same position (please think about the 
translation in crystal). Actually, in you input file, atom 1~4 aimed the same 
position.

[Pw_forum] Problems in running check-pw.x.j

2012-03-27 Thread Carlo Nervi
Hi Paolo, hello community... your experience could be of great help:
I also tried to use check-pw.x.j on QE 4.3.2. First I did not use 
mpirun: it passed with 1-2 not significant numerical discrepancy.

By using "mpirun -n 2" more discrepancies appears (sometimes very 
different number of iterations, i.e. 86 instead of 57 in lda+U_gamma test).

By using "mpirun -n 48" it crash at dipole calculation. Too fast for 48 
cores?

Up to now I used pw.x "apparently" without problems, but...should I be 
worried?

QE was compiled with gfortran 4.6.1 and acml 5.0.0 (libacml.a and 
libacml_mv.a) and with amdlibm 3.0.1

Thanks,
Carlo

Some test are too mall to be run with so many processors. I.e. most tests  
only have one or a few k-points, so they can only be run with one or a few  
pools.

In particular, the dipole test a FFT grid with only 38 points along the Z  
axis, hence it cannot parallelized on more then 38 processors per pool  
(without using bands, taskground or openmp). You can see it at the  
beginning:

  sticks:   dense  smooth PW G-vecs:dense   smooth  PW
  Min   7   7  1  728  728  22
  Max   8   8  2  816  816 146
  Sum 303 303 7529755297553661
  Tot 152 152 38

You see that the "tot" value for PW says 38. You can also notice that  
dimension constraints of the DFFT algorithm make you waste a lot of cpu  
time (every cpu doubles the size of its FFT grid along z!).

Running with 39 cpus you do actually get this error:
  %%
  task #38
  from n_plane_waves : error # 1
  No plane waves found: running on too many processors?
  %%
for some reason this message does not get printed to stdout, but you can  
get it from the CRASH file.

the lda+U test is especially sensitive to small numerical differences,
and the Gamma-only one seems to be the most sensitive of all. I suspect
that the origin of such numerical differences between  is mainly in
mathematical libraries, blas and lapack. If so, there isn't much that
can be done

2012-03-27 Thread Bertrand SITAMTZE


Exatly,

As Giuseppe said, the cartesian coordinates of the atoms are written under the 
heading ATOMS in the xsf file in angstrom. Therefore it willbe necessary in 
your new QE input to change ATOMIC_POSITIONS{crystal} to 
ATOMIC_POSITIONS{angstrom}.? Note also that the followings parameters should be 
modified accordingly: nat, celldm(1) or CELL_PARAMETERS.

[Pw_forum] Input for lambda.x execution for el-ph coupling

2012-03-27 Thread Elie M

Thanks very much for your response. So if I understood correctly, the points 
used for the el-ph calculations (obtained from ph.x) in my case 10 x 10x 1 (14 
q points) are the ones to be used in the lambda.in file right? what about the 
weight of each point? do we need to give them in the input and how to calculate 
them?

Thanks again

Subject: Re: [Pw_forum] Input for lambda.x execution for el-ph coupling



  




  
  


if you know the q-grid that you used in elphon calculation, you can
just use kpoint.x and give the information about system as follow:



bravais lattice  >>  {your bravis lattice no 1...14}

filout [mesh_k]  >> {just hit enter}



then it will asks for some info (depends on your lattice), just
enter them

.

.

.

mesh: n1 n2 n3   >> {enter your q-grid in X X X  format
"example: 8 8 8"}

mesh: k1 k2 k3 (0 no shift, 1 shifted)  >> enter 0 0 0 (no
shift for all direction)

write all k? [f] >> {just hit enter}



then read the file that code creates named mesh_k



hope it works

[Pw_forum] Input for lambda.x execution for el-ph coupling

2012-03-27 Thread bahadir
if you are talking about the q-points in elphon out file(whis are used 
for naming elph. files), those are not the q-points that 
should be used in lambda.in file. you have to generate q points by the 
kpoint.x as i explained in previous reply and obtain mesh_k file as an 
output of kpoint.x. it will give you the qpoints and their 
weights(should give same number of q points as in elhon output file, if 
you say 14q points it should give 14 points in mesh_k file), and yes you 
must enter the weights in lambda.in file.
