Dear Tsjerk, Thank you for your valuable suggestions, I have done as you have suggested, by doing so my simulation cell has satisfied all the conditions required for the reduced basis lattice but now lattice parameter beta has again changed to 102 degrees which was initial

Hi Ramesh, You already got a good handle on it! You can subtract and add vectors without changing the lattice. Now, the box in gromacs will be something like ((ax, 0, 0), (bx,by,0),(cx,cy,cz)). If cx > 0.5*ax, then you can change the vector to (cx-ax,cy-0,cz-0), and the new |cx'| will always be sm

Dear Tsjerk, I am very thankful to you for your reply and sorry for delay as it has taken much time to understand the things properly. I have gone through the material that you have attached with this mail that is really useful. Now I have understood that large change in be

Hi Ramesh, Did you note how your atoms didn't change their positions? And how you can still stack them using either set of vectors? It's a great example of how PBC works. It's not the box that's important, not the vectors, but the infinite simulation system that results from stacking the unit cell
