Your tutorial video is very much helpful for me. Thanks for making such kind of videos. When I try to CDD calculation. When I import CHARGCAR.vasp file in VESTA, there shows some 3D that "data grids in 3D data sets sets not matched with each other "... How can I solve grid related problem? please help me sir.
Why didn't you mention that the number of KPOINTs in your SCF calculation needs to match the number of points in your non-SCF calculation for the band structure? Lots of people get errors with that.
Small corrections to the video: if NSW = 0, then IBRION is automaticly -1, so changing IBRION for SC-Calculations is not required. The same goes for ISIF, this is not required to be commented out when NSW = 0. if ICHARG = 11, then the CHGCAR will be read for DOS-Calculations, ISTART is used to set if the WAVECAR is read if provided, not the CHGCAR.
Hello Dr. Rasoul! Nice explanation. I am facing one problem while doing DOS calculations. My DOS plot has too many spikes and I want to make it smoother. I have used NEDOS=3000 and ISMEAR = -5, K-points double than those used for geometry relaxation. Please give your suggestions. Thank you!
Thank you sir, I tried to implement it but the system abort the job due to memory or low response issue. As I am beginner so surely I would be missing something important. Like, I am using a 32 cores per nodes system, and learning calculation on ScF3. Can you please elaborate that ho would I determine NBANDS or kPoints if I use 888 k grid?
Hi Rasoul, thank you for this nice video. I was wondering how you would parallelise 164 bands and 800 kpoints on a 192 cores/node cluster ... I encountered difficulties to make it work, what would be your strategy ? Thank you :)
Hello, thank you for the video. I have few questions: - Did i need to perform calculations with the kpoints in the symmetry path like for electronic band structure in order to calculate the phonon band structure? - Can you do the same tutorial but with phono3py to calculate lattice thermal conductivity? Best regards.
Hi Rasoul, great video tutorial, however, I noticed that you mentioned you use same INCAR for DOS and band structure calculation, but based on some of my test, use ISMEAR = -5 for linemode KPOINTS in band strcutreu calcualtion will lead to error message from VASP. Can you confirm if that is the case?
Hello Professor, thank you for this information. I would like you to put a video to calculate the mechanical properties, i.e. elasticity and thermodynamics. Thank
Hello, I already have sqrt(3)xsqrt(3)x3 structure, containing 78 atoms. If I increase the dimension, the number of atoms will be large enough for VASP calculation. How do I start the phonon calculation? **************phonopy -d --dim=" ? ? ?" ************************** to create the necessary displacement files
I try to use ICHARG = 10, and it starts reading charge density but another error pops up ERROR FEXCF: supplied exchange-correlation table is too small, maximal index : 3855
I have a quick question. While running the DOS calculation, I copied the CHGCAR file from SCF calculations and made changes to my INCAR and K-point files. However, every time a warning message appears: "WARNING: chargedensity file is incomplete ERROR: charge density could not be read from file CHGCAR for ICHARG>10" "I have checked the CHGCAR file several times, and it appears to be complete. Please respond. Thank you.
The steps are as follows: 1. Relaxation done 2. Copied CONTCAR file to POSCAR file. 3. Copied all files from relaxation directly to Scf directory, made changes in INCAR file. 3. Copied all files from Scf directory to dos directory, made corrections in INCAR file and k-point file. 4. I’ve checked the CHGCAR file is complete. Now, please let me know, I’m doing something wrong or what.
Dear @Resoul Khaledialidusti, thank you very much its very helpful but i have problem ..plz can you help me to find lattice thermal properties its not mentioned in the video.
