================== DFTD3 (deprecated)

NOTE: This library is deprecated and is not developed or maintained any more. Please use the simple-dftd3 library <https://dftd3.readthedocs.io>_ instead.

This is a repackaged version of the DFTD3 program <http://www.thch.uni-bonn.de/tc/index.php?section=downloads&subsection=getd3>_ by S. Grimme and his coworkers.

The original program (V3.1 Rev 1) was downloaded at 2016-04-03. It has been converted to free format and encapsulated into modules. The source has been split into two parts:

• A library with the core functionality. This can be directly used by third party applications wishing to calculate dispersion with the DFT-D3 approach.

• Additional extensions which are necessary for the command line tool DFTD3 and the command line tool itself.

• Updated dftd3 code to include refitted/modified zero- and BJ-damped D3 versions of Sherrill and coworkers (-bjm and -zerom) (Functionality corresponds to V3.2 Rev0)

Compilation

Edit the file make.arch to reflect your compiler and linker. Then you can issue one of the following commands:

• make lib: to build the library libdftd3.a and the necessary module files (*.mod) in the directory lib/.

• make dftd3: to build the executable dftd3 in the directory prg/.

• make testapi: to build a simple tester for the library (testapi) in the directory test/. The source code of this tester demonstrates how the library can be used by third party codes.

If you just issue make, all three targets will be compiled.
