[Pw_forum] Not convergence of the scf in phonon calculation
Thanks,but is there only one parameter can be changed ? Is there any other parameters? which value of is the most smallest alpha_mix(1) that is effective ?

[Pw_forum] Is the results of structural relaxiation by pwscf accurate?
dear all According to my trying with different software,i found that there is a large difference between relaxiation with pwscf and other software(e.g.vasp and castep),So i want to know wh ether the relaxiation of pwscf is reliable?

According to the pointview of methods/theories implemented in DFT codes, all of the relaxed structures from QE, VASP and CASTEP are definitely reliable. But, these codes use different pseudo-potentials, which induce slight fluctuation to the final structure. Most important, all the structures should be obtained from the converged computational parameters. Otherwise, there is no code being able to provide "reliable" structure. -- GAO Zhe, Dr., Research Engineer, Quartz, Saint-Gobain Research (Shanghai), No. 55, Wenjing-road, Minhang-district, Shanghai, China At 2013-04-30 00:42:32,"???" <18733462676 at 163.com> wrote: dear all According to my trying with different software,i found that there is a large difference between relaxiation with pwscf and other software(e.g.vasp and castep),So i want to know wh ether the relaxiation of pwscf is reliable?

The validity of the optimization results using PWscf can be verified through the comparison with the available experimental data.

Try calculating it and report it here. That will be a nice exercise for you.

[Pw_forum] FX8350 and Quantum Espresso
Hello, Does anyone have experience running QE on AMD FX 8350 or FX 8320 eight-core PC? There are several posts on the Forum about Intel 7/AMD dating back to 2009, but I do not see anything about the PC using the newest FX AMD processors. Right now it is possible to build FX8350 (8core, 4 GHz, 16GB memory) for less than $700.00, or with 32 GB memory for additional $150.00. If you use these processors, can you post info on the Forum? Thank you, Best regards, Jan Gryko Jacksonville State Univ. Jacksonville, AL
