<div dir="ltr"><div>It is straightforward to modify the DFT-D3 code so that it works with another functional, in addition to those that are explicitly listed. Problem is, the parameters of DFT-D3 are tailored for a given functional, so one ends up with a set of corrections that are inconsistent with the chosen DFT functional. If optimized parameters for the desired functional have been found, one can easily add them to the DFT-D3 code for usage together with the desired functional. Or, one can decide that parameters that are good for functional X are good for functional Y as well ...</div><div><br></div><div>Paolo<br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Thu, Apr 8, 2021 at 12:51 PM Fabrizio Ferrari <<a href="mailto:ferrariruffino.fz@gmail.com">ferrariruffino.fz@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div>Hello,</div><div>by having a look at the dft-d3 code (subroutine 'setfuncpar' in 'core.f90') I see that the functional you enforced, which corresponds to the 'optbk88' dft shortname is not available.
