> As you see final stress is -24.51 kbar ??????!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Maybe the explanation is here ??????!!!!!!!!!!!!!! http://www.quantum-espresso.org/faq/self-consistency/#6.10 Before the last step, the code should have printed the following message: A final scf calculation at the relaxed structure. The G-vectors are recalculated for the final unit cell Results may differ from those at the preceding step. If your plane-wave basis set is not very converged, and if your final unit cell volume is significantly different from the starting one, you may easily get a few tens of kBar as final pressure (corresponding to a very small change in volume anyway) Paolo -- Paolo Giannozzi, Dept.
