[Pw_forum] electrostatic potential

2014-03-21 Thread Sridhar Sadasivam
I think V_bare means the potential due to the nuclei and V_hartree is the
potential due to electrons. The units of the potential are in Ry.

[Pw_forum] QE pw-gpu help

2014-03-21 Thread 薛诗川
To sum up:
there are some parameters that i can adjust to help the convergence process.
1.   etot_conv_thr , forc_conv_thr .
  they are threshold values. so if they are larger, the process is easy
to converge?
2.   ecutwfc, ecutrho
  they are cutoff values. what are their functions? is it better when
they are smaller?
3.   electron_maxstep
  it means the max number of iteration. 100 is enough.
4.   conv_thr
  what does this mean?is it the same with  etot_conv_thr ,
forc_conv_thr, the larger the faster to stop?
5.npool

and dear pro, i am a freshman actually. and i don't know the detail of its
calculation, or to say i don't need to know the details but i should have a
fundamental understanding of its calculation. i should have known about its
physic principles, its heaviest calculation part so i can change these
important values to make it faster.

looking forward to your reply.
thank u again.

[Pw_forum] matdyn file corrupted? Error in routine readmat (1): mismatch in reading file

2014-03-21 Thread weeliat
Dear All,

I got the following error msg when running dynmat.x (ver 5.0.2) on a matdyn 
file to get the eigenvectors/values.

? ? ?Reading Dynamical Matrix from file matdyn

%%%
? ? ?Error in routine readmat (1):
? ? ?mismatch in reading file
%%%

? ? ?stopping ...

I compared this matdyn file with other matdyn files that i have but found 
nothing structurally different. ?

I wonder if somehow this matdyn file is corrupted and if there is a way to 
recreate this file as i have all the previous "raw" output (i.e., all the 
output files from phcg.x)? ?I have considered to rerun this calculation to get 
a new matdyn but it took 1 month for phcg.x to finish and generate this matdyn 
file for my 150-atom system.

Please help.?

Thanks,

wee liat

2014-03-21 Thread DELLACA' Valentina (CRF)
Dear all,
In my understanding, to plot the electrostatic potential of a crystal one needs 
to perform a post processing run with pp.x, with plot_num=11. I was wondering 
the exact meaning of the  V_bare  and  V_H potential, and in which units the 
results come out.
Thanks a lot!

i still have some problems.
i have tested an input file from "espresso-4.3.2-examples.tar" which
contains a lot of input files and ref files.Specifically, i tested the
following input file with my pw-gpu.x/

but when i check the ref file, i found that test time is only a few
seconds?!
i am totally confused? is the test machine's performance so good?

Yes indeed, Paolo is right. There was time ago a back-porting to 4.3.2 but it 
is deprecated because it is too complex to maintain. It iw _VERY_ important, 
unless really required, to use the latest version of QE together with QE-GPU.

[Pw_forum] get ewald_dipo energy?

Hi,
   I am recently studying the Ewald contribution, there is the  
ewald_dipo.f90 for calculating ewald field on each atom due to the  
dipole, I am wondering if there is anyway to get the Ewald_dipo energy  
print out directly?

thanks in advance,

[Pw_forum] 3 additional frequencies (6 total) when only displace one atom in the PH.x calculation

nat_todo means that the calculation is performed only for irreducible
representations containing a displacement of the chosen atoms(s). 
In the output of the phonon code, you should see how many irreps are
used and their degeneracy. If there are 6 frequencies, there should 
be a total of 6 irreps. What you get as frequencies may not have any
special physical meaning, with the exception of some special cases
(e.g. molecule on a surface with well-separated modes)

[Pw_forum] curie temperature of double perovskite

I do not think you can do it with Q.E.
You can get the exchange parameters with QE and do Monte Carlo
simulation afterward.

very simple. don't use a GPU unless you can answer all of the
questions above by yourself.
compile a CPU (that is "CeePeeYouu") version of the executable and
work through the significant available tutorial material and start
working on improving your understanding.

people understand that you are new to this, but please keep in mind
that a mailing list is not replacement for an adviser and learning
understanding the basics first. insisting to ask the same questions
over and over until people will satisfy your personal expectations
will only lead to you frustrating others and using up time that could
be spend more productive on *both* sides.

...and recompiled as well? then you are trying to plot data produced 
using Gamma-only tricks, i.e. using for k-points the following card: 
K_POINTS Gamma 
and this is not implemented

[Pw_forum] q2r.x with ibravais=0

2014-03-21 Thread Elio Physics
Hello all,
I have encountered an old post about q2r.x with ibravais=0 in espresso-5.0.1. I 
have read that q2r.x has problems reading the 'dyn' files..I am getting an 
error:
"%% 
Error in routine init (1):  nc already filled: wrong q grid or wrong nr 
%%"
Is there a solution to this error (like a change in the input) or do I have to 
repeat everything with the CVN version of QE?
regards
