Dear QE users
I'm doing the relaxation calculation about graphene with hydrogen atoms
absorbed on it .But for some configurations the calculation stopped by itself
without achieving the convergence . I want to know what can be the reasons .
What can I try to achieve the convergence .Any help will be greatly
appreciated .Here is my input file:
