[Pw_forum] The stress in the output of the scf.

[lyw1983]

Dear all,
   when I test the ecutwfc for CrO2, I found that the stress at the end of the output file change largely with differenr ecutwfc values, I choose the ultrasoft pseudopotential for Cr and O, the pseudopotential as follow:
  Cr  Cr.pbe-sp-van.UPF
  O   O.pbe-rrkjus.UPF
   what can cause this result and who can tell me?
   The input file as below:


. ../../environment/environment_2
for ecut in 30 35 40 45 50  
do
 rm -rf $TMP_DIR/*

cat > cro2.scf.in << EOF
 &control
    calculation = 'scf'
    restart_mode='from_scratch',
    prefix='cro2',
    tstress = .true.
    tprnfor = .true.
    pseudo_dir = '$PSEUDO_DIR/',
    outdir='$TMP_DIR/'
