Jan Stránský proposed the following answer:
Hello,

in general, it is not straightforward to change non-periodicity =>
periodicity

> In order to reduce the volume of the representative unit and want to
use periodic boundaries,

so you are going to simulate a (much) smaller periodic sample out of
original non-periodic sample?

> how to realize the conversion from non-periodic boundary to the
periodic boundary without disturbing the sample？

One option is to create a new periodic sample, preserving characteristics of the original sample.
Not straightforward either..

Cheers
Jan
