I started a IBRION=6 calculation several days ago to get the vibrational frequencies of a system. As you known, it will take a lot of cpu times. But the supercomputer crashed yesterday, and I want to continue the calculation.
I wonder how to continue the calculation, because I do not find any tips to continue such a IBRION=6 calculation calculation. Otherwise, to restart the whole calculation is too expensive.

unfortunately, crashed or broken calculations for the vibrational spectra cannot be continued. Please let me however ask you to consider the following: Just in case you are interested in a few specific vibrations only (like the vibrations of an adsorbed molecule on a surface) it saves a lot of computing time if you fix some of the (substrate) atoms, which will not affect the molecule's vibrations. (selective dynamics in POSCAR)

5.3.2 does not print out the hessian matrix in OUTCAR for IBRION=6

Hi, master

I have been doing phonon calculation using VASP 5 for insulator using our ?Mixed-space approach for calculation of vibration-induced dipole-dipole interactions?, Phys. Rev. B 85, 224303(2012).

The inputs are the Born effective charges, dielectric constants, and hessian matrix from the OUTCAR. The method works very well untill VASP 5.3.2.

However, when I recently try VASP 5.3.2 with IBRION=6, it does not print out the hessian matrix in the OURCAR anymore while VASP 5.3.2 prints the hessian matrix with IBRION=8.

This is killing me. I know that the hessian matrix can be found in the vasprun.xml file. But I don not want to rewrite my code for reading the xml file.

Please tell me how to set the controls in the INCAR file so that I get the hessian matrix (SECOND DERI...) for 5.3.2 as that were printed in 5.2.12 and the previous version?

Thank you very much for your time.

/Yi Wang

Elastic moduli for IBRION=8

Dear all:
In the vasp manual of "April 23, 2009", it is written in IBRION=6:" The final elastic moduli including both, the contributions for distortions with rigid ions and the contributions from the ionic relaxations, are summarized at the very end. TOTAL ELASTIC MODULI (kBar)?
When I use IBRION=8 (vasp5.2.8), "ELASTIC MODULI IONIC CONTR (kBar)" is written in OUTCAR. It is the TOTAL ELATIC MODULLI ?

Thanks in advance :p

please read the manual: for IBRION =8, the contributions of the ionic relaxations to the elastic moduli are NOT accounted for.

Dear All:
I am having problems computing the phonon frequencies in VASP version 5.2 with IBRION=6 The structure is converged with IBRION=2 but a run to obtain the phonons does not stop after energy convergence on wavefunctions and calculate the phonon frequencies. Any pointers would be useful. The INCAR and POSCAR files are below.

please note that the number of displacements which have to be calculated if all atoms are allowed to vibrate and NFREE = 4 will be probably be extremely large, even is symmetry is taken into account (IBRION=6) because as far as I see at first glance from your POSCAR, the symmetry is probably very low. There is an electronic scf calculation done for each of the displacement to set up the Hessian matrix, only displacements which are equivalent due to one of the symmerty operations of the lattice are not calculated explicitely

I want to do some computation of the CNT's elastic moduli .And I don't know how to set the parameters in INCAR .
I use
IBRION =6
ISIF =3
NFREE =4

And I don't know whether the parameter is ok or not .Can you give some suggestions on it ?

ISIF=3 is not appropriate for systems containing vacuum
IBRION=6 is not supportted in vasp.4.6

vibrational properties are a typical post-processing feature, therefore please first relax the cell and the ions (ISIF=3) and then calculate the frequencies.

Hi all:
I am getting a problem with calculating Born charges using vasp 5.2. In the INCAR file I set LEPSILON = .TRUE. and LRPA = .FALSE. as mentioned in the manual. The job is getting killed for larger kpoints. for smaller kpoints the job runs until the following error pops up:
| |
| EEEEEEE RRRRRR RRRRRR OOOOOOO RRRRRR ### ### ### |
| E R R R R O O R R ### ### ### |
| E R R R R O O R R ### ### ### |
| EEEEE RRRRRR RRRRRR O O RRRRRR # # # |
| E R R R R O O R R |
| E R R R R O O R R ### ### ### |
| EEEEEEE R R R R OOOOOOO R R ### ### ### |
| |
| VASP internal routines have requested a change of the k-point set. |
| Unfortunately this is only possible if NPAR=number of nodes. |
| Please remove the tag NPAR from the INCAR file and restart the |
| calculations. |
| |
| ----> I REFUSE TO CONTINUE WITH THIS SICK JOB ..., BYE!!! <----

Now, when I remove the NPAR tag. The job is getting killed with the following:
rank 3 in job 93 node4.iitk.in_32788 caused collective abort of all ranks
exit status of rank 3: killed by signal 9
rank 2 in job 93 node4.iitk.in_32788 caused collective abort of all ranks
exit status of rank 2: killed by signal 9

Can anyone post a solution to my problem? Thanks in anticipation

please try to
1) increase the number of parallel CPUs (for the incerased memory demand)
AND
2) set NPAR to the number of CPUs you use for this job explicitely
