Hello,
I made a modified script to study the positions of 13 copper atoms cluster at
900 K. The initial 13 Cu atoms are cut from a regular FCC crystal.

At the step 5 the *.evp file gave the following:

Kindly let me know if the input values for the script are correct? I will once
again update the results when all the 10 nsteps are complete.
Thank you,
