Axel Kohlmeyer

The main purpose for keeping these pages around is to have a location to conveniently make material available that i have been working on, without being subjected to the constant file layout changes of university run webpages and without being tied to my current employer. My current position is that of a Associate Dean for Scientific Computing in the College of Science and Technology as well as Associate Director of the Institute for Computational Molecular Science and Assistant Vice President for High-Performance Computing, all at Temple University in Philadelphia, PA. On E-mails: As you may expect, I get a lot of e-mails, so I kindly ask you to understand that I am not always able to answer any question that is posed to me and that my replies may be delayed, short, and blunt.

Plugins. In addition to Tcl and Python scripts, VMD implements "plugin" interfaces which provide a means for extending VMD at run-time without the necessity to recompile the program.

Plugins

The two primary types of plugins for VMD are 'molfile' plugins for reading and writing data files containing atomic, graphics, and volumetric data, and scripting extensions which implement new commands and user interfaces for performing tasks such as structure building, simulation setup, etc. This page contains plugins which can be downloaded and installed in your copy of VMD, as well as any pertinent documentation that goes along with the plugins. License The VMD plugins are provided under the UIUC Open Source License, any exceptions are explicitly marked as such.

Plugin Developer Documentation: Plugin Programmer's Guide — describes the VMD plugin architecture so others can develop and build new plugins, and to use the VMD plugins in other software. Acemd.

[About] [Access to the code] [Documentation] [Databases (Pseudos and Bases)] [The Team] News SIESTA is both a method and its computer program implementation, to perform efficient electronic structure calculations and ab initio molecular dynamics simulations of molecules and solids. SIESTA's efficiency stems from the use of strictly localized basis sets and from the implementation of linear-scaling algorithms which can be applied to suitable systems.

A very important feature of the code is that its accuracy and cost can be tuned in a wide range, from quick exploratory calculations to highly accurate simulations matching the quality of other approaches, such as plane-wave and all-electron methods. The possibility of treating large systems with some first-principles electronic-structure methods has opened up new opportunities in many disciplines. USPEX. The VASP site. Vasp.
