It is an attractive method because it is both self-consistency and non-perturbative way \cite{Kohn_1965} and allowed for an atomistic \emph{ab initio} description at a reasonable computational cost for simulation cells below a few hundred atoms.  Alternatively, time dependent tight-binding have been proposed as well to overcome some size limitations \cite{Mason_2012} at the price of additional approximations.  In studying the role of ion-solid interactions in $\mathrm{H^+ + Al}$, Correa \emph{et al.} \cite{Correa_2012} have shown that the electronic excitations due to molecular dynamics (MD) are quite different from the adiabatic outcome.   Even today the inclusion of non-adiabatic effects in a real calculation poses a challenging problem.   In studying the role of ion-solid interactions in $\mathrm{H^+ + Al}$, Correa \emph{et al.} \cite{Correa_2012} have shown that the electronic excitations affects the interatomic forces relative to the adiabatic outcome.  Recently Schleife \emph{et al.} \cite{Schleife_2015} have calculated the electronic stopping $(S_\text{e}$ by $\mathrm{H}$ and $\mathrm{He}$ projectile including non-adiabatic interactions and found that off-channeling trajectories along with the inclusion of semicore electrons enhance $S_\text{e}$ resulting in  better agreement with the experiment. In this case we concentrate in a metal with a richer electronic band structure around the Fermi energy.
