| Title
A brief one-sentence description of this Property Definition.
| Cohesive energy and stability versus first Piola-Kirchhoff shear stress path of a cubic crystal |
| Description
A description about this Property Definition.
| Cohesive energy and stability versus first Piola-Kirchhoff (nominal) shear stress path under stress control boundary conditions for a cubic crystal at zero absolute temperature. The applied nominal shear stress is defined by a shearing direction and shear plane normal relative to the reference conventional crystal coordinate system. |

| description | Fractional coordinates of the basis atoms in the conventional unit cell for the reference stress-free crystal. If the unit cell vectors are denoted by <a>, <b>, and <c>, and the fractional coordinates of atom 'i' are [afrac_i, bfrac_i, cfrac_i], the value of 'basis-atom-coordinates' will be of the form [[afrac_1 bfrac_1 cfrac_1] [afrac_2 bfrac_2 cfrac_2] ... ].
