Thanks Prof. Peter, There are some more queries.
For the present system, ~3-3.5 is best-reported rmt. Prof. Oleg reported 3.5 in his Sci. Rep. paper while in one of my earlier case I used 3 which was fine to me. So I kept rmt 3 in the present case. Yes, I am using 16 core here. The strategy told by Prof. Lawrence is similar to yours. So definitely, I will run a crude convergence before structure optimization (after getting the final conclusion from present scf). What should I do if :FCHECK are negative? can it be or I should worry? I see :FCHECK is oscillating (see below). In all test case of the present calculation, should increase LVNS from 4 to 6 in case.in1(c)? or in final. I never tested it so do not know how it will affect the calculation. *Can I use TEMP 0.002 instead of TETRA?* If I am not wrong, them in case of MSR1a the :FOR will work after final scf! :FCHECK: Sum of forces -69.940627520 74.707201466 256.655266254 :FCHECK: Sum of forces -64.560329574 73.360823345 231.480485436 :FCHECK: Sum of forces -48.034175166 65.104093472 166.986223927 :FCHECK: Sum of forces -35.064695164 59.878383059 106.378782186 :FCHECK: Sum of forces 1.658948381 44.163592598 -28.823131541 :FCHECK: Sum of forces -1.715900623 54.670180112 -38.208248369 :FCHECK: Sum of forces -44.599628242 84.665399276 80.309287437 :FCHECK: Sum of forces -104.389046420 114.231138278 298.688183293 :FCHECK: Sum of forces -146.872184802 138.002715039 506.089724144 :FCHECK: Sum of forces -139.929513824 116.740866115 514.542253158 :FCHECK: Sum of forces -44.458957001 53.512685999 90.795768329 :FCHECK: Sum of forces -21.346540908 53.389897235 -190.728160314 :FCHECK: Sum of forces -62.241454337 85.443479855 -99.767209873 :FCHECK: Sum of forces -33.315408954 60.975140246 18.014683106 :FCHECK: Sum of forces 22.819602947 -13.223462643 257.628716681 :FCHECK: Sum of forces -30.714958092 40.048468655 258.360331510 regards Bhamu On Fri, Apr 6, 2018 at 5:01 PM, Peter Blaha <pbl...@theochem.tuwien.ac.at> wrote: > To be efficient you should: > > Start with an RKmax 0f 2.5 or 3.75 instead of 3 (check later) > > Reduce k-points to 2x2x1 (check later). > > run -it -p -fc 10 # crude convergence before structure optimization ! > # -p because you want to use the 16 cores.
