Energy gradient method

Because of its use of average quantities, the free-energy gradient method is especially suited for use together with the MFA. Their joint application permits a considerable saving of computation time. The force experienced by the solute nuclei when the geometry is defined by the point r of the FES is [21-23]...

The energy-gradient method was first put into practice for closed-shell HF calculations, but it has recently been extended to spin-unrestricted and restricted-HF calculations on open-shell systems and to certain types of multiconfigurational SCF calculations. A method has been developed, based on the perturbed HF theory, to calculate the derivatives of MO coefficients. With this in hand, one is now able to calculate the energy gradient for a...
