UT theoretical chemistry code forum

First, sorry about posting similar threads on both forum--i didn't know those two forums are related--i've been working on this TST thing for a while but couldn't get it work, so i was really in a rush to figure out the answer~~~ Thanks for answering--here are the INCAR setups--i'm working on small ...

I'm trying 4-images TST search using NEB, but when i check OUTCAR of each individual images, the tangential force increased as calculation goes--which i think is abnormal. (one increased from -1. to + 27. )

Anybody have ideal what's been going on?

Exactly the kind of of answers i expect~~

Thx a lot for sharing~~~

and

--Happy study!
