Dear Developers,
I am using cp2k-7.1.0 version and it is showing stress tensor, analytical,
is not available for meta functional.
Does newer version contain stress tensor, analytical ?
As I mentioned I found with scan npt simulation is running too slowly to
have a meaningful simulation run.
Any other help. See the inp and out file in my earlier post.
Best regards
Niharendu Choudhury
