DESCRIPTION
This examples shows how to refine a NEB calculation with the ::pwtk::neb_refine_auto workflow.
N.B.: there is also a similar ::pwtk::neb_refine workflow.
This example is based on neb-N2OPd.pwtk that considers the dissociation of N2O on Pd(110).

# this examples reuses the neb-N2OPd.pwtk example. Hence, let's # activate the restart mode with ::pwtk::restart to avoid # recalculating the neb-N2OPd.pwtk example if it was were already done. restart on # import neb-N2OPd.pwtk to perform the neb.x calculation import neb-N2OPd.pwtk # now let's refine the transition state (TS) and activation energy by # using the ::pwtk::neb_refine_auto workflow (N.B. there is also a # similar ::pwtk::neb_refine workflow); # # ::pwtk::neb_refine_auto refines the TS by taking the previous-NEB # TS-1, TS, TS+1 images and performing NEB calculation by using more # images from TS-1 to TS+1. # # N.B. PWTK prints the refined activation energy to stdout neb_refine_auto -CI_scheme auto -CI_thr 0.035 N2O-Pd110-c2x2-3L.refined 5
