Dear VASP Community,

I’m looking to calculate third-order elastic constants for crystalline materials and would like to know if VASP offers any native functionality for this. Thanks in advance!

Best regards,
Zhao

Dear Zhao,

No, there is no native way to compute the third-order elastic constants.

Kind regards,
Pedro
