[Pw_forum] question about the stress in relax process

2010-09-20 Thread Wang Di
Dear all I perform the relax calculate to the crystal structure. After 11 step bfgs, the total force and total scf correction had reach to the criterion, however, the total stress was so big P=-3443.87. I have no idea about deal with the case, could anyone give some advices? Thanks in advance. t

Dear Wang, The 'relax' process optimizes the structure within given geometric constraint. It does'nt care for stress. It minimizes force only in the given constraint. If you want to minimize the stress also you have to do 'vc-relax' calculation, It will give you what you want.

Dear Mohnish: I have used the 'vc-relax' process optimized the cell parameter, however, the result were seem to deviate from the initial value (experimental value) too much.The aim of the structure optimizes is for calculating the Raman spectra of the structure, I think the bad structure ( not coin

Dear Wang, Are you sure that this is your input file? Because the calculation flag says it is "scf" ..Which will not definitely do the relax calculation On Mon, Sep 20, 2010 at 3:32 PM, Wang Di wrote: > Dear Mohnish: > I have used the 'vc-relax' process optimized the cell

I am very sorry that the input file was wrong, the relax input file is the similar to the file. &CONTROL calculation = 'relax' , restart_mode = 'from_scratch' , wf_collect = .true. , outdir = '/lustre/AIOFM/gxgu/workLCAF/6/te
