TBOUNDLIBXC = .TRUE. | .FALSE.
Default: TBOUNDLIBXC = .FALSE. 

Description: TBOUNDLIBXC specifies whether or not the lower bound for the Kohn-Sham kinetic-energy density () is enforced before is used in a meta-GGA functional from Libxc.


The Kohn-Sham kinetic-energy density should in principle be larger than the von Weizsäcker kinetic-energy density . However, for numerical reasons this may not always be the case and can potentially lead to problems depending on the meta-GGA. When TBOUNDLIBXC=.TRUE., is applied before is used in a meta-GGA functional from Libxc.
