[CP2K-user] [CP2K:16863] Re: Is CP2K a good choice for AIMD simualtion for iron oxide reduction by hydorogen using CP2K

[Marcella Iannuzzi]

Dear Kejiang Li

It is possible to run AIMD with CP2K together with DFT+U. 
You can find examples on how to prepare input files for different types of 
simulations at
