identified in the original minimisation with NOPR, and Born stability criterion not being met. However,<br />

very rarely, the increased accuracy of the second derivatives matrix in a PROP calculation could show that a<br />

structure was unstable, although this was not apparent with NOPR switched on. Even more unusually, it is<br />

possible for there to be a k=0 imaginary frequency for a mechanically stable crystal structure. This will<br />

occur only if the representations of the group in which the elastic constants transform do not include the<br />

representation which has the imaginary frequency.<br />

If STAR PROP is used, but the NOPR directive is included, <strong>DMACRYS</strong> will not calculate the phonon<br />

frequencies, instead just carrying out the perfect lattice relaxation calculation.<br />

At present properties calculations should not be attempted when the induction energy is included.<br />
