KERNEL TRUNCATION/LTRUNCATE

From VASP Wiki
Revision as of 08:59, 15 October 2024 by Svijay (talk | contribs)

KERNEL_TRUNCATION/LTRUNCATE_COULOMB_KERNEL = .True. | .False.
Default: KERNEL_TRUNCATION/LTRUNCATE_COULOMB_KERNEL = .False. 

Description: KERNEL_TRUNCATION/LTRUNCATE_COULOMB_KERNEL truncates the coulomb kernel to remove electrostatic interactions along non-periodic dimensions

Setting KERNEL_TRUNCATION/LTRUNCATE_COULOMB_KERNEL to .True. switches on coulomb kernel truncation methods. These methods removes interactions with periodic replicas in non-periodic directions.

Mind: This tag acts as a "super-tag", i.e. unless this tag is switched on further options in KERNEL_TRUNCATION will be ignored.
