[CP2K:4619] Re: energy drift in NPT MD simulation

[hut... at pci.uzh.ch]

Hi

- Is your system stable in NVT dynamics?
- Have also a look at the forces and stress tensor. Anything special there?
- What about the SCF convergence in the first steps? Is it smooth or
  do you get strange behaviour?
 
regards

Juerg

Dear Matt W, 
                   The cell_ref parameters are expected cell parameters, which are observed through experiment. When I had gone through the previous mailing list for reference cell parameters, they suggested that these parameters should be close to the expected cell parameters. So that I have given those parameters.      

Thank you

Hi,

well your system is clearly exploding. Your cell_ref parameters look inconsistent with your actual cell - maybe the stress tensor is very bad!
