BRMIX: very serious problems
the old and the new charge density differ
解决方案汇总(google,baidu的前10个搜索结果):
1,ISYM=0;
Set ISYM = 0 explicitly in the INCAR file. (I had ADDGRID added as well). Helped me with VASP 4.6 and VASP 5.2.2
2,
1) 增大PREC。please have a look whether the grid for the Broyden mixing is lage enough (WARNING: grid for Broyden might be to small in OUTCAR). If so,increase PRECand check if the error persists
2) 增大K点。in case you use a tetrahedron method for BZ integration your k-mesh should be large enough to fill the (I)BZ with tetrahedra completely
3,降低优化选项
1) The problem disappears after reducing optimization level from -O4 to -O3.
2) The parallel version only works if I reduce optimization flag to -O1 at which point the serial version is faster anyways.
3) OFLAG=-O3 -xW 改成 OFLAG=-O1 看看 或许是优化参数的问题
4,在K点中加入Gamma点
We found that there's an error in the way VASP calculates k-points when using the Monkhorst-pack scheme and that the problem would be fixed if we used Gamma centered instead.
