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.
Debian Live Linux System that contains OS, editors, materials science application software, visualization tools, etc. An environment needed to perform materials science simulations is provided as a one package. By booting up on VirtualBox virtual machine, one can start simulations, such as the first-principles calculation, molecular dynamics, quantum chemical calculation, lattice model calculation, etc, immediately.
Open source Python package for data mining of materials. It can extract data from more than dozens of databases, perform preprocessing and visualization of extracted data. By combining machine-learning tools such as scikit-learn, users can build machine-learning models with descriptors created from the extracted data.
A database of structures and properties for various materials including polymers and inorganic substances. This database is maintained by National Institute of Materials Science (NIMS), and provides crystal structures, various physical properties, and phase diagrams for material science via a user interface based on web browsers. This database also provides calculation results of phase diagrams and electronic structures. This database can be used without charge after registration.
A program package for numerically solving effective lattice models using matrix product states (MPS). The ground state of a one-dimensional quantum system and its time evolution can be numerically evaluated by using an infinite system algorithm based on MPS. Useful tutorials and examples of calculations are also provided.
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.).
A program package for physical properties related to magnetism. This application can evaluate various physical quantities of magnetics such as crystal fields, magnetic structures, thermodynamic quantities (magnetization, specific heat, etc.), and magnetic excitation. This package can also perform fitting analysis of neutron diffraction experiments and resonant X-ray diffraction experiments, and is helpful to experimentalists.
MDACP (Molecular Dynamics code for Avogadro Challenge Project) is an efficient implementations of classical molecular dynamics (MD) method for the Lennard-Jones particle systems. MDACP Ver. 1.xx adopts flat-MPI and Ver. 2.xx adopts MPI+OpenMP hybrid parallelization.
An open-source application for the electromagnetic field simulation based on the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. Time-evolution of the electromagnetic field in the system written by 1-, 2-, and 3-dimensional orthogonal coordinates and cylinder coordinates can be calculated under various boundary conditions and spatial dependence of permittivity and permeability. The main programs are written by C++, and can be called from Python scripts.
An application for simulating microstructures of alloys based on a phase-field method. This application can treat various problems in multi-component alloy systems such as solidification, solid-phase transition, and dynamics of crystal growth. Any required thermodynamic quantities can be obtained by calculating phase diagram or by direct coupling to the thermodynamic data calculated by other application.
