[QE-users] Elastic properties of 2D material

[Abolore Musari]

Dear experts,
I want to calculate the in-plane elastic constants c11 and c12 of an
hexagonal 2D material. The cell parameter is of the form :

a(1 0 0) b(-0.5 (sqrt3)/2 0)

Kindly assist how to apply the strain in order to determine c11 and also
for c12. I intend to use energy-strain approach.

Thanks and best regards
