rescale_box defines whether the simulation box is rescaled during the course of a molecular dynamics simulation, according to some fixed scaling factors. The general transformation is as follows (with the value of the scaling factors and whether they are fully independent from each other determined by the box_scaling_factor keyword):
[math]\displaystyle{ \textbf{v}' = [[1+t_{xx}, t_{xy}, t_{xz}], [t_{yx}, 1+t_{yy}, t_{yz}], [t_{zx}, t_{zy}, 1+t_{zz}]] \, \textbf{v}. }[/math]
