[ase-users] Geometry Constraints abinit calculations

Dear ASE friends,

I try to do some geometry optimisation with abinit. I like to fix some atoms in my defined slab of Pd atoms.

I have added the following to my python script:

# Fix layers:
        mask = [atom.tag > 2 for atom in slab]
        slab.set_constraint(FixAtoms(mask=mask))

I would expect that these constraints would translate to some *fix* variables in abinit input file. However, there are no parameters concerning geometry constraints in the abinit input files.

Neither can I find some code concerning geometry constraints in ../ase/calculators/abinit.py

Do I miss something?


Met vriendelijke groeten,
Mit freundlichen Grüßen,
