[Thermo_pw-forum] Facing Convergence issue while running thermo_pw to find Elastic constnat

Dear Sir/Madam.

                  I am using QE 7.0 for running my DFT calculation, and
currently, I am trying to find the elastic constant using thermo_pw
(version 1.7.0). But my run is not converging even after 500 iterations,
and thus, I am not getting any final result. I have used the same SCF file
that I used to obtain the band structure after fully relaxing the system.
Can you kindly help me to solve this issue?

Thanking you in advance.

with regards

Naryanan
