Synopsis

MinimizeCrystals [-chtV] [--aa=<selection>] [--cy=-1] [-e=1.0] [--et=1.0e-10] [-f=OFF] [-I=Unlimited] [--ia=<selection>] [--mi=-1] [--nbfgs=7] file

Description

Minimize crystal unit cell parameters.

Options

-c, --coords
Cycle between lattice and coordinate optimization instead of optimizing both together.
--cy, --cycles=-1
End minimization if it has cycled between lattice parameters and coordinates more than this value.
--et, --energyTolerance=1.0e-10
End minimization if new energy deviates less than this tolerance.
-f, --fractional=OFF
Maintain fractional coordinates during lattice optimization [OFF/MOLECULE/ATOM].
-h, --help
Print command help and exit.
--mi, --minimumIterations=-1
End minimization if it starts to cycle between small coordinate and lattice parameter fluctuations.
-t, --tensor
Compute partial derivatives of the energy with respect to unit cell parameters.
-V, --version
Print the Force Field X version and exit.

Minimization Options

-e, --eps=1.0
Convergence criteria.
-I, --iterations=Unlimited
Number of minimization steps.
--nbfgs=7
The number of correction vectors used by the L-BFGS optimization routine (0 for steepest-decent).

Atom Selection Options

--aa, --active=<selection>
Ranges of active atoms [NONE, ALL, Range(s): 1-3,6-N].
--ia, --inactive=<selection>
Ranges of inactive atoms [NONE, ALL, Range(s): 1-3,6-N].

Arguments

file
Atomic coordinate files in PDB or XYZ format.
