Dear all,<br><br> I'm doing calculation of a slab, which consist of 57 atoms ( 33 inequivalent atoms ). The calculation is spin-polarized. A 15x15x1 k-mesh has been used. It turns out that the convergence is bad. Please help me check the following information and give me advice. Should I continue this calculation, or restart a new calculation with some new parameters?<br>
Any reply will be appreciated.<br><br>------------------------- :ENE in case.scf:<br>:ENE : *WARNING** TOTAL ENERGY IN Ry = -88970.76119434<br>:ENE : *WARNING** TOTAL ENERGY IN Ry = -88969.55368537<br>:ENE : *WARNING** TOTAL ENERGY IN Ry = -88969.16941431<br>
