Why do you get a segmentation fault if you swap the y and z
coordinates,velocity columns?

Another way around is to change the simple_localpres_analysis.c code. If you
look into it there is a loop that runs over boxes in z direction to
calculate pressure tensor in z direction. You could change it to y.
