<div>Hi,<br>
I had previously used procedure used in<br>
<a href="https://gitlab.com/QEF/q-e/-/tree/3ec392ecee8a83958789d31be5737adac07974ba/HP/examples/example02" target="_blank">https://gitlab.com/QEF/q-e/-/tree/3ec392ecee8a83958789d31be5737adac07974ba/HP/examples/example02</a><br>
to calculate hubbard parameter for my antiferromagnetic insulator<br>
system which matches with previously reported values. The scf<br>
calculation with occupations = fixed and total magnetization = 0 (as<br>
suggested in<br>
<a href="https://www.quantum-espresso.org/Doc/INPUT_PW.html#idm1129" target="_blank">https://www.quantum-espresso.org/Doc/INPUT_PW.html#idm1129</a>)  my system<br>
failed to converge. I tried usual methods like changing mixing beta<br>
values etc but it also failed.<br>
<br>
My questions is this : Can I use first two steps of above mentioned<br>
example with previously calculated hubbard parameter values inserted<br>
to calculate scf energy ie  first calculate scf energy with occupation<br>
= smearing (ie fake magnetic metal) and .then use occupations = fixed<br>
and total magnetization = 0 along with the wavefunctions and the<br>
potential obtained in the previous step to get the scf energy.<br>
 Any other suggestions will also be most helpful.<br>
