Re: [SIESTA-L] how to calculate the values of strain tensor from forces or stress tensor?

Vasilii, thank you for advice, I'll check it. But this works only if I don't put any geometry constraints. If I want ie fix the angles, I never get even low values of stress components - only change of angles will allow that. So in this case I need to take zero stress into account. In some cases,

If your system is not too large, I'd advise that you determine the relaxed lattice constants from a series of fixed-cell calculations, especially if the system is more or less symmetrical. Although your stresses seem quite low to me, I think that the only way to improve them might be, indeed, to
