Dear all
admittingly, my skills in cp2k are a bit rusty.
I wanted to look into the DFT-D option of cp2k, specially how the second
derivatives calculation are performing on rather large molecules.
>From the manual I takt it one can do DFT-D calculations so I thought I am
using the water example and play around with that. I decided, mainly for
speed reasons, to go with the BP functional and compare that MD run with one
where DFT-D is switched on, i.e. BP-D.
However, I am not sure whether I done the setup correctly, so I thought I
might as well print out whether or not dispension is actually switch on.
Playing around with various option in
__ROOT__%FORCE_EVAL%DFT%PRINT%DFT_CONTROL_PARAMETERS
where somehow unsuccesful in this respect. Would somebody just briefly comment
on whether my input file (attached below) is correct and how to print out the
DFT parameters?
I have omitted the coordination section to save some space.
All the best from London!
