Reminder: NEB calculations are no longer performed by \pwx. {\bf Reminder 1:} NEB calculations are no longer performed by \pwx.
In order to perform a NEB calculation, you should compile In order to perform a NEB calculation, you should compile
\texttt{NEB/neb.x} (command \texttt{make neb}). \\ \texttt{NEB/neb.x} (command \texttt{make neb}).
There are two ways for running a calculation with \nebx: \\ \noindent {\bf Reminder 2:} \nebx\ does not read from standard input.
1) specifying a file to parse with the \texttt{neb.x -inp} or You cannot use input redirection, as in \texttt{neb.x < neb.in ...}.
\texttt{neb.x -input} command line option. \\
2) or specifying the number of input positions \texttt{neb.x -input\_images}. \\
{\bf \nebx\ does not read from standard input at the moment}. \\ A NEB calculation can be run in two different ways:
\begin{enumerate}
\item by reading a single input file, to be specified using command-line
options \texttt{neb.x -inp} or \texttt{neb.x -input};
\item by specifying the number $N$ of images (i.e. points in the
configuration space), using command-line option
\texttt{neb.x -input\_images N}, and providing input data in
a \texttt{neb.dat} file and in files \texttt{pw\_X.in}, $X=1,...,N$.
\end{enumerate}
For case 1) a file containing KEYWORDS has to be written (see below). For case 1) the input file contains KEYWORDS (see below for format
These KEYWORDS tells the parser which part of the file regards neb specifics specifications).
and which part regards the energy/force engine (at the moment only PW). These KEYWORDS enable the code to distinguish which part of the file
After the parsing different files are generated: \texttt{neb.dat}, with contains NEB-specific data and which parts contains input data for the
neb specific variables and a set of \texttt{pw\_*.in} PWscf input files like energy and force computational engine (currently only PW).
