摘要
In this paper, a framework of using h-adaptive finite element method for the Kohn-Sham equation on the tetrahedron mesh is presented. The Kohn-Sham equation is discretized by the finite element method, and the h-adaptive technique is adopted to optimize the accuracy and the efficiency of the algorithm. The locally optimal block preconditioned conjugate gradient method is employed for solving the generalized eigenvalue problem, and an algebraic multigrid preconditioner is used to accelerate the solver. A variety of numerical experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of our algorithm for both the all-electron and the pseudo-potential calculations. (C) 2012 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
