Re: [QE-users] Appropriate option for cell_dofree with hexagonal cell and variable cell relaxation
Thank you - I will try scaling XY and Z separatly.

Re: [QE-users] Appropriate option for cell_dofree with hexagonal cell and variable cell relaxation
Dear Dan, I think you could get this effect by repeatedly alternating cell_dofree="2Dshape" and cell_dofree="z". However, for an hexagonal system, this won't do what I think you want to do. I.e. the hexagons can still become distorted, if symmetry is broken. If symmetry is not broken, you do not need any cell_dofree at all. kind regards On 01/08/18 01:34, Dan Gil wrote: Hi, I am having trouble understanding the pw.x documentation (https://www.quantum-espresso.org/Doc/INPUT_PW.html#idm29).

[QE-users] Appropriate option for cell_dofree with hexagonal cell and variable cell relaxation
Hi, I am having trouble understanding the pw.x documentation ( https://www.quantum-espresso.org/Doc/INPUT_PW.html#idm29). Is there an option where changes in X are coupled and changes in Z are independent? For example, the X will change with the same ratio (say 1.01) but the Z can change with a different ratio (say 0.98).
