Regarding use of GCMC to add water molecules

I am working on a goethite system, and wish to fill the unit cell with water molecules for AIMD simulation using quantum espresso. For this, some papers[1],[2] indicated the use of Grand Canonical ...

How to perform atomistic spin dynamics (ASD) Ab Initio Molecular Dynamics (AIMD) using VASP?

I have tried normal AIMD simulation using VASP for Non magnetic materials. Now, I am interested to perform the molecular dynamics simulations for the finite temperature for Magnetic materials to ...

Normal coordinate analysis in TRAVIS

I have run a few AIMD calculations of some impurities trapped in a solid using CP2K and TRAVIS to simulate the resulting infrared spectrum. While the infrared spectrum was simulated well, there is no ...

How to estimate the minimal distance between atoms for which a pseudopotential-based AIMD gets forces correctly?

I am doing ab initio molecular dynamics in VASP. As far as I know, pseudopotentials approximate all-electron potential far from the nucleus, and deviate from it near the nucleus. When some of my atoms ...

AIMD simulation of a silica slab and a electrolyte placed in the vacuum region

Can someone share a VASP input file as a template that I can use to equillibrate a system as mentioned in the title. I created one but I am not sure if that is correct or not. ...

How to calculate constraint force for angle constraint in CP2K NVT MD simulation?

I am running a CP2K NVT molecular dynamics simulation and want to apply an angle constraint between three atoms. In my previous simulations, I used a bond constraint between two atoms, and it was easy ...
