Dear Lyudmila Sir,

                         To remove the confusion I am sending the struct
file which have been used in our simulation. I have good results as far as
the volume optimization curve is concerned. However, while calculating the
lattice parameters using the formula V = a^2 c sin60 I got the low value of
lattice parameters. My query is
(1) Whether I have done something wrong in the formula itself?
(2) While GGA is better than nlvdw in this case?

with regards,
