[Wien] Volume optimization

[prasad jayasena]

Dear Dr. Gerhad

I am not good at programing. So I am not sure whether what I have tried is what you have said. I copied the optimize.job below. But it did not work. 


for each i ( \
 case___-5.00 \
 case___-4.00 \
 case___-3.00 \
 case___-2.00 \
 case___-1.00 \
 case____0.00 \
 case____1.00 \
 casel____2.00 \
 case____3.00 \
 case____4.00 \
 case____5.00 \
 )
 
 rm case.struct # NFS-bug
 cp ${i}.struct case.struct
 
 
 # Please uncomment and adapt any of the lines below according to your needs 
 # if you have a previous optimize-run:
 # cp ${i}_default.clmsum case.clmsum
 # cp ${i}_default.clmup case.clmup
 # cp ${i}_default.clmdn case.clmdn
 # if you want to start with dstart:
 # x dstart -p 
 # x dstart -up -p 
 # x dstart -dn -p 
 # recommended default method: use charge extrapolation
 clmextrapol_lapw
 if (-e case.clmup && ! -z case.clmup) then
 clmextrapol_lapw -up
 clmextrapol_lapw -dn
 endif
 
 # modify the run_lapw command below
 # (parallel, convergence, iter.diag, MSR1a minimization,...) or
 # comment the run_lapw line and activate spinpolarization
 
 x symmetso
 cp ${i}.struct_so case.struct


 cp ${i}_default.clmsum_so case.clmsum
 cp ${i}_default.clmup_so case.clmup
 cp ${i}_default.clmdn_so case.clmdn


 runsp_lapw -p -ec 0.00001 -cc 0.0001 -so



If it is possible could you please let me know what is wrong with this script. Thank you
Prasad

 Depends whether it is spin polarized or not

if not it should run using -so in your optimize.job
Indeed you need to initialize SO at least once 

in case of spin polarization you have to check that the structures andclm and other files are all correct

Usually I run a spin polarized optimize job first without so and then
I initialize so
afterwards
I run x symmetso in the optimize.job for each structure and copy the new so structure and clm files e.g.:
      x symmetso # -c 
      cp case.struct_so case.struct
      cp caseclm_so ...
      ...
      runsp_lapw -so -ec .......


I am presently out of office, I will send later the changed fortran file that provides the commands in optimize.job

Ciao
Gerhard

Volume optimization with SOC should work -- force optimization does not.

Dear wien2k community

Is it possible to do a volume optimization with SOC added? I tried adding -so in the optimize.job , but it crashed.

Thank you

Prasad
