How to break the limit of number of NKPT>NKDIM

#1 Post by ryohei_nishioka » Fri Nov 06, 2020 10:57 am

Dear all,

I have a problem of calculation including large number of k-point (over 128x128x128).
When such a large number of k-point is set, calculation stops showing a error message "IBZKPT',' NKPT>NKDIM'".

1. I increased a value of "NKDIM" in a source code file "mkpoints.F" under src directory to unlimit the number of k-point.
2. did "make clean" under src directory
3. did "make" under src directory

But the calculation could not be done due to segmentation fault.

How to use large number of k-point with no limitation?

Best regards,
Ryohei
