Structural optimizations

The Vienna Ab initio Simulation package and the Munich Spin-Polarized Relativistic Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker package use different approaches to calculate the ground state energy of a structure. Even without an ionic relaxation, it is important to perform an electronic relaxation before calculating some of its properties, such as its exchange-correlation energies. Thus, before calculating these values, we can compare the experimentally known properties with the computational results to validate the model.
