An open-source framework for execution management of numerical simulation. By registering target simulators, information at the time of execution (parameters, date and time, hostname, version of simulators, etc.) and calculation results are saved automatically on database. Job submission and browse of job status can be performed efficiently from web browsers.
A collection of shell scripts for installing open-source applications and tools for computational materials science to macOS, Linux PC, cluster workstations, and major supercomputer systems in Japan. Major applications are preinstalled to the nation-wide joint-use supercomputer system at Institute for Solid State Physics, University of Tokyo by using MateriApps Installer.
The fragment molecular orbital (FMO) method can efficiently do quantum-mechanical calculations of large molecular systems by splitting the whole system into small fragments. The FMO program is distributed within quantum-chemical program suite GAMESS-US. FMO can provide various information regarding the structure and function of biopolymers, such as the interaction between a protein and a ligand.
A support application for preparing input files of molecular dynamics calculation. This application supports manual input of atomic coordinates and bond informations, reading files of protain structure database, and editing data by graphical user interface. It also implements various functions such as addition of hydrogen atoms and composition of data. and can treat a large number of atoms using only a moderate memory cost.
Tool for performing analytical continuation for many-body Green’s functions by using the maximum entropy method. From the data of the Green functions on the imaginary axis, users can obtain the values of the Green’s functions on the real axis. This tool supports the several different Green’s functions (Bozonic, Fermionic, anomalous, etc.).
An application for the Rietveld analysis used in X-ray and neutron diffraction experiments. This application determines lattice constants and atomic coordinates from X-ray and neutron diffraction data on powder samples. It supports Windows and Linux. For Windows version, graphical user interface (GUI) named WinPLOTR can be used.
An application for prediction of stable and metastable structures from a chemical composition. This application applies particle swarm optimization to predict material structures from results of the first-principles calculation by external packages (VASP, CASTEP, Quantum Espresso, GULP, SIESTA, CP2k). It has been applied to predict not only three-dimensional crystal structures, but also those of clusters and surfaces.
An application for the Rietveld analysis used in X-ray and neutron diffraction experiments. This application determines lattice constants and atomic coordinates from X-ray and neutron diffraction data on powder samples by pattern fitting based on the maximum entropy method (MEM). It can also analyze materials with random atomic configuration effectively. It supports Windows and Mac OS, and is still being developed actively.
This application can produce input files of various applications for density functional theory (DFT) calculations via user-friendly parameter adjustment using three-dimensional computer graphics (3DCG) and graphical user interfaces (GUI). Input-file conversion between different applications is also possible.
A pre/post-processing application for SIESTA and TranSIESTA. This application can calculate phonon frequencies, electron-phonon coupling, and contributions of inelastic scattering to the conductance. It also provides a Python interface for accessing data in the Hamiltonian output from SIESTA.
