   Dear Sir,
  </div> 
  <div> 
   <p> I am getting the error <strong><em>Program received signal SIGSEGV: Segmentation fault - invalid memory reference, </em></strong>during relax calculation of Pt12-Rh structure. However, in case Pt12-Au structure, there is no error and it is converging fully.</p> 
   <p>   I would like to know whether, the issue with &control, &electron, &ion configuration or any software issue.</p> 
   <p>   Thanks and Regards,</p>
