How to check configurations stability!!

Open CrankyBot2001 opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

Hello, thank u for the great software. I am a beginner in this code. I have a query about how to check structure stability by calculating and then plotting convex hull and formation energy of my selected enumerated configurations. Please provide settings.json files format for convex hull and formation energy to run, casm-learn --settings settings.json --checkhull. Also, suggest some tutorials on how to run VASP calculations in CASM.

Kindly anyone reply, how to proceed further DFT calculation after enumerating my configurations? I want to check which configuration is most stable to pursue further DFT calculation.

Have you tried casm learn --settings-format?

If you just want to plot the convex hull of calculated configurations, you can do casm query -k atom_frac formation_energy hull_dist(CALCULATED) and use those values.
