Young modulus ?

#1 Post by tfujita » Wed Nov 08, 2006 4:50 am

How can I calculate a Young modulus of bulk metals?
I want to know the Young modulus of an amorphous model of 100 atoms.
I do not know how to write INCAR file and how to retrieve.

Thanks.

the Young modulus itself is not calculated in vasp, you have to calculate it from the stress tensor and E/V information you can obtain by appropriate settings of ISIF
