[Wien] Fwd: Strain

[Tomas Kana]

Dear Muhammad, 
I think that you need to do init_lapw manually and select the option
restart from setrmt. Then x sgroup knows that your structure is different 
and suggest you a new structure with only 16 (I think) operations of 
symmetry.
Best regards 
Tomas

I am sorry having no idea about it. Simply I used optimized structure and 
increased a by a0*1.001 and decreased b & c by keeping lattice type F. Then 
run init_lapw -b.

Dear All
I got Si structure from wien2k examples and after optimization it is
SILICON
F   LATTICE,NONEQUIV.ATOMS:  1
MODE OF CALC=RELA unit=ang
 10.305626 10.305626 10.305626 90.000000 90.000000 90.000000
ATOM   1: X=0.12500000 Y=0.12500000 Z=0.12500000
          MULT= 2          ISPLIT= 2
       1: X=0.87500000 Y=0.87500000 Z=0.87500000
Si         NPT=  781  R0=0.00010000 RMT= 2.22        Z: 14.0
LOCAL ROT MATRIX:    1.0000000 0.0000000 0.0000000
                     0.0000000 1.0000000 0.0000000
                     0.0000000 0.0000000 1.0000000
  48      NUMBER OF SYMMETRY OPERATIONS

mBJLDA gives band gap of 1.19 eV (perfect).

 Now I apply strain (0.1 %) and structure is

SILICON
F   LATTICE,NONEQUIV.ATOMS:  1
MODE OF CALC=RELA unit=ang
 10.315932 10.300477 10.300477 90.000000 90.000000 90.000000
ATOM  -1: X=0.12500000 Y=0.12500000 Z=0.12500000
          MULT= 2          ISPLIT=-2
      -1: X=0.87500000 Y=0.87500000 Z=0.87500000
Si         NPT=  781  R0=0.00010000 RMT= 2.22        Z: 14.0
LOCAL ROT MATRIX:    0.0000000 0.0000000 1.0000000
                     1.0000000 0.0000000 0.0000000
                     0.0000000 1.0000000 0.0000000
  48      NUMBER OF SYMMETRY OPERATIONS
This time band structure (attached herewith) is very different and Si is 
metal.
Kindly guide me whether I am apply strain in right way or not? Band 
Structure is
