<br>Dear colleagues, <br>I am beginner user of the Quantum-Espresso. My task is the simulation 32 water molecules (H2O). I have still some problems. The main of them is a variable-cell MD with cp.x code under constantly high pressure in the (NpT - ensemble). Another words, I am exploring 32 molecules of water under high pressure and specific temperature. My script to this case is<br>

The value for "wmass" in CELL section I got from the previous step. During the calculation I have one problem: in the step7.out file the value of (XNHH0 - position of Nose' for cell) became equals to infinity from approximately 1000-1500 time steps. Why is it?<br>
<div>I will be very glad for answer on this problem.<br></div><div><br></div>-----------------------------------------------------------------<br>With best wishes, Artem R.<br><br>Dr. Artem R. Khabibullin<br>Department of Theoretical Physics,<br>
