Parameters for calculating force

Parameters here are for calculating atomic force. The atomic force is defined as the negative derivative of the total energy with respect to the displacement of atomic position.

calculation.force.decomposed

key word

:

calculation.force.decomposed

possible values

:

1, true, 0, false

default value

:

false

description

:

If true, the total force will be decomposed into

several terms and the value of each term is given. If

false, only the total force is given.

an example

:

calculation.force.decomposed = true

calculation.force.movingAtoms

key word

:

calculation.force.movingAtoms

possible values

:

integer array

default value

:

all atoms in the central cell

description

:

The 3*n force components corresponding to the atoms

listed in the movingAtoms will be calculated, and the

other force components will be given as NaN or zero.

Please note that the order of the atoms has been listed

in the output file Atoms.txt, which may be different

from original input.

an example

:

calculation.force.movingAtoms = [10:291]
