ERmod

  • Level of openness 3 ★★★
  • Document quality 2 ★★☆

ERmod is software for calculating the free energy in soft, molecular aggregate. This program rapidly and accurately calculates the free energy of binding of a molecule in the aggregate through combination of the molecular dynamics simulation and the energy-representation theory of solvation. The solubility of a molecule can be determined with ERmod in arbitrary solvent including supercritical fluid and ionic liquid. Assessment is also possible for the binding strength and site of a molecule in micelle, lipid membrane or protein.

EVO

  • Level of openness 3 ★★★
  • Document quality 1 ★☆☆

An application for structure prediction based on the evolutionary algorithm. From an input of the atomic position in a unit cell and possible elements at each atomic position, this application predicts the stable structure and composition from the first-principles calculation and molecular dynamics in combination with the evolutionary algorithm. This application is written in Python, and uses Quantum ESPRESSO and GULP as an external program.
