<div dir="ltr">Hello,<div><br></div><div>I am trying to fix some atoms in a vc-relax simulation, i.e., I want the relative positions of these atoms to remain the same during vc-relaxation. I specified 0 0 0 next to the atomic positions of these atoms. However their relative positions do change. I have tried giving the coordinates of these atoms in both crystal and angstrom units with no luck. </div>
<div><br></div><div>Their relative positions do remain constant in a relax simulation but not in a vc-relax simulation. Does anyone know what might be the problem?</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div><div>Sridhar</div>
