[DFTB-Plus-User] Barostat usage

Thanks so much for your help.  The way we put the geometry file together is in a cluster.

Hello Tim,

is the geometry a supercell or cluster? The barostat is only available in the first of these two cases.

Regards

Ben

Dear all,

I am trying to do some  calculations using the  hsd file below, and I have been getting an error from line 14 - 17 stating that there is an error with the Barostat command.
I am writing to ask if someone can check to see where I am going wrong.

Thank you for your help.

    Filling = Fermi {

    }
}
