Hi all
I am trying to optimize a crystal with some constrains. I want only
optimize cell sides, but no cell angles. For this, I add the next block
label:
%block GeometryConstraints
stress 2 3 4 6 7 8
%endblock GeometryConstraints

I thought that stress 1, 3 and 9 are correlated with axis a, b and c
respectively (and unit cell vectors a11, a22 and a33). The remaining
stress are corresponding to cell angles. I am sure that a11, a22, a33 are
the cell side.
Of this way, a12, a21, a22, a23, a32 and a33 positions of out cell are
constants during the optimization.
Does someone know the transformation matrix that SIESTA uses?

I hope that you can understand me without problem

Thank in advance

Gregorio
