<div>Dear all,</div> <div>After many vc-relax calculations(first ibrav=1,then using ibrav=0, new cell_parameters, new positions), I obtained <BR>the following results. It is obvious the cell angle parameters have been changed and the structure isn't the cubic structure.</div> <div><BR> 1. If I still set ibrav=1 in the next scf calculation, how to read the new lattice constant? <BR>I have attempted to use celldm(1)*(a11+a22+a33)/3 as the new celldm(1),<BR>(axx is the diagonal element of cell_parameters) ,the output atomic_positions(alat) as the new atomic_positions,and neglect all of the nondiagonal elements.<BR>After the first self-consistent,I gain stresses with very large value. How can I adapt the input parameters to avoid this condition and get smaller elements?</div> <div><BR>2.Must the k-points are same in the vc-relax and scf?</div> <div> </div> <div>any help will be appreciated!</div> <div><BR>Best!</div> <div> </div> <div>Niu
