nnewchance

Syntax

nnewchance = arg

arg = integer

Default

nnewchance = 0

Description

Number of times a research is allowed to cross a convex region (without counting the starting convex region).

When the system has reached an area on the PES where there are positive curvatures but no minimum, as an \(x^3\) curve, the pushing vector can be modified to escape the region.

Unexpected behavior

Can lead to unconnected paths.
