I am currently working with Wien2k_21.1 version. I would like to get some suggestions for doing optimization of lattice parameters for a tetragonal alloy .The experimental lattice parameter for the alloy is <b>a=b=</b><b>5</b><b>.</b><b>426</b><b> A ,c=</b><b>10.816</b><b> A</b><b>ng</b><b>.</b>
I have constructed the structure file with the space group I-4 (space group number:82) and the above mentioned experimental lattice parameters.
After doing the initialization with 1000 k points energy minimization has been done by varying the volume -10%,-5%,0%,5% and 10 % with constant c/a optimization.I obtained a fairly good E Vs c/a curve.
But I am facing some problems.
Now my problems are
1) I did not get the optimized lattice parameters (l<b>attice constant after the optimization process)</b> with varying the c/a ratio with constant volume.
2) In my case.outputeos file, I did not get a lattice constant value. I also used 2Doptimizaton process but result is same.

<i><b>Also missing the lattice constant value in fourth line of case.outputeos file.(blank space ##)</b></i>
