Hi all,
I've been running a vc_relax calculation on a 40 atom system. The
calculation works fine for some cycles. The total force had come down to
0.108. After some time. the force started increasing and now the iterations
don't converge even in 400 steps. The input file is
 /
 &SYSTEM
                       ibrav = 0,
                         nat = 40,
                        ntyp = 1,
                     ecutwfc = 12 ,
 /
 &ELECTRONS
                 mixing_beta = 0.3 ,
             diagonalization = 'david' ,
             electron_maxstep = 200 ,

[&Ions/]

&CELL
cell_dynamics= 'sd' ,
cell_dofree='xy' ,

CELL_PARAMETERS angstrom
    22.265358047804796    0.000000000000000    0.000000000000000
     0.000000000000000   11.131216979724510    0.000000000000000
     0.000000000000000    0.000000000000000   10.000000000000000

P.S. Ive tried changing cell dynamics to 'damp-pr' , 'sd' and 'damp-w', but
the same problem persists.
Can anybody Please help me identifying the mistake ?
Thank You.
