13 How do I calculate the elastic constants?

Use what='scf_elastic_constants'. See example13. The elastic constants appear in the output of thermo_pw and also in a file called output_el_cons.dat if the name of the file is not specified in input. This file can be read by thermo_pw for the options that require the knowledge of the elastic constants.
