VASP homepage
The Vienna Ab initio Simulation Package (VASP) is a computer program for atomic scale materials modelling, e.g. electronic structure calculations and quantum-mechanical molecular dynamics, from first principles.
VASP is installed on Grace and is accessed through the hierarchical module system:
To list the versions of VASP installed on Grace use the command:
mla vasp
To list the required module dependencies for vaspversion use the command:
ml spider vaspversion
Finally, load the required dependencies and the desired VASP version to setup your environment to run vasp:
ml dependencies vaspversion
Sample VASP Job file for Grace:
