<BODY contentEditable=true onload=parent.init()><P><BR>Hi Huiqun Zhou</P>
<P>In regular implementation of these methods as in the present version of the code, it does not make sense to study the pressure-induced transition.</P>
<P>There was, however, an interesting and possibly useful paper about extending the NEB to the case of phase transtions (I believe) by Emily Carter in PNAS. I cannot remember the exact reference (Sorry, I am out of town and cannot check it for you) but very recent.</P>

<P><BR>> <BR>> Could anyone give me a pointer whether it's theoretically <BR>> reasonable to investigate solid state <BR>> transition induced by pressure using NEB or string method? <BR>> <BR>> Any references are appreciated. <BR>> <BR>> Happy New Year! <BR>> <BR>> Huiqun Zhou</P></BODY>
