​Dear experts
cpmd is running only on gamma point or if any one needs for layers is that
scientifically sounds.
thank you​

[Pw_forum] Cpmd

2017-02-04 Thread ashkan shekaari
Dear experts,
How does the cp code import temperature for example for a 6-atom system
such as atomic clusters? I mean temperature is meaningful when the number
of atoms is of the order of the Avogadro number. Does it apply a kind of
periodic boundary condition as what is used in classical MD, generating
many copies of the given system in a periodic fashion?

Dear experts,


Once a CPMD simulation at zero pressure, constant volume, and at a finite
temperature (say, T=70 K) is performed (temperature is kept constant by
rescaling the nuclear degrees of freedom), what kind of MD (NVE, or, NPT)
is going to be used?

[Pw_forum] CPMD 2016 workshop announcement

2015-12-16 Thread Govoni, Marco
Dear Colleagues,

We would like to draw your attention to the CPMD2016 workshop:

Car-Parrinello Molecular Dynamics in 2016

May 18-20, 2016

The University of Chicago, Chicago, USA

http://www.cpmd2016-conference.org

Ab initio or Car-Parrinello Molecular Dynamics (CPMD) has become a widespread 
tool in atomistic simulations of materials and molecular systems in a variety 
of fields, encompassing physics, chemistry and materials science. Sponsored by 
University of Chicago, Argonne National Laboratory, IBM and ACS Journal of 
Chemical Theory and Computation, the CPMD2016 workshop will bring together 
developers and practitioners in the field of ab initio MD, to discuss 
state-of-the-art methodological developments as well as applications, and to 
brainstorm about future milestones.

CPMD2016 will start on Wednesday morning, May 18th and end on Friday early 
afternoon, May 20th, with the daily agenda featuring two sessions including 
presentations followed by ample periods of general discussion, as well as a 
poster session. The event will be held at the Institute of Molecular 
Engineering at the University of Chicago.

We encourage submission of poster abstracts, especially from students and 
postdocs. The Journal of Chemical Theory and Computation is generously 
sponsoring poster awards. Abstracts may be entered in the registration form. 
The deadline for registration and abstract submission is February 18, 2016.

With kind regards,

CPMD2016 Local organizing committee,

Giulia Galli (UChicago & ANL)

Greg Voth (UChicago)

[Pw_forum] cpmd cannot reach the electronic ground state

2013-01-07 Thread DONG Juncai
Dear Prof. Giannozzi,

I tried to path my 5.0.2 version, but it still doesn't work for me.

First, to follow the method mentioned in general user_guide, I test
"make plumed", (make plumed unpacks PLUMED, patches several routines in PW/, 
CPV/ and clib/, recompiles PWscf and CP with PLUMED support). Error repeats.

Second, I search the ?di?? ?le for 5.0.2 version on http://www.qe-forge.org. 
But I couldn't find a copy.

Third, I compile my 5.0.2 version with different libraries (BLAS, LAPACK, and 
FFTW) on PC and cluster. Error repeats.

Is there anything I overlook? Where can I download the patch files? Could you 
send me a copy patch of 5.0.2 version or the its URL link?

You kind help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Dong

do you need to use plumed? if not, you should not do that.

patches have been posted to the mailing list. They have been mentioned

it works for me. You need to apply the patch to the 5.0.2 version,  
though.

you should use 'Gram-Schmidt' only for the very first steps,
then 'ortho'. You should use 'damp' instead of 'sd'

Dear all,
 
I have carried out cpmd calculation with cp.x on a Ge diamond-structured 2x1x1 
supercell. However, it seems like that it is impossible to reach the electronic 
ground state. It is weird that the Scf total energy is positive and much large
