Visualização rápida baseada em OpenGL de estruturas moleculares, métodos de mecânica molecular (minimização, simulação MD usando os campos de força Amber, Charmm e MMFF94), cálculo e visualização de propriedades eletrostáticas (FDPB) e recursos de edição molecular.

Pode ser considerada uma interface gráfica de usuário construída sobre o Ball (Biochemical Algorithms Library, Biblioteca de Algoritmos Bioquímicos), com foco nas demandas mais comuns de químicos proteicos e biofísicos em particular. Foi desenvolvido nos grupos Hans-Peter Lenhof (Universidade Saarland, Saarbruecken, Alemanha) e Oliver Kohlbacher (Universidade de Tübingen, Alemanha). O Ball é uma infraestrutura em C++ especificamente projetada para desenvolvimento rápido de programas de modelagem molecular e Biologia molecular computacional. Fornece um conjunto amplo de estruturas de dados e classes para Mecânica molecular, métodos avançados de solvatação, comparação e análise de estruturas proteicas, importação/exportação de arquivos e visualização.

This program should convert CASTEP's .check, .castep_bin, orbitals and .cell to various other formats, particularly so that they can be visualised with Jmol, XCrysDen, gnuplot and other programs. It can extract charge and spin densities, wavefunctions, symmetry operations, and much else besides. It also interfaces with Abinit, Quantum Espresso, Siesta, VASP, and other electronic structure codes.

The code can also manipulate .cell and .pdb files, building supercells, performing shifts, adding vacuum and rolling nanotubes.

A Python library that provides parsers for computational chemistry log files. It also provides a platform to implement algorithms in a package-independent manner.

This package contains helper scripts for end users.

If you are looking for the unit tests and data files managed by cclib, they are distributed separately as in non-free package cclib-data.

Gabedit is a graphical user interface to computational chemistry packages like:

  • MPQC
  • GAMESS-US
  • Gaussian
  • Molcas
  • Molpro
  • Q-Chem

These Ab Initio software packages might run locally or on a remote server (supporting FTP, RSH and SSH). Gabedit can display a variety of calculation results including most major molecular file formats. The advanced "Molecule Builder" allows one to rapidly sketch in molecules and examine them in 3D. Graphics can further be exported to various formats, including animations.

slurm-wlm-torque and gridengine-client are workload managers which provide wrappers for PBS commands. Gabedit also allows one to configure it for any other workload manager.

GaussSum parses the output files of ADF, GAMESS, GAMESS-UK, Gaussian, Jaguar and PC GAMESS calculations to extract useful information.

GaussSum uses GNUPlot to display the progress of geometry optimisations, density of states spectrum, UV-VIS spectra, IR spectra, Raman spectra, and electron density difference maps. It can also display all lines containing an arbitrary phrase and more.

TRAVIS (Trajectory Analyzer and Visualizer) is a free tool for analyzing and visualizing trajectories from all kinds of Molecular Dynamics or Monte Carlo simulations. The aim of TRAVIS is to collect as many analyses as possible in one program, creating a powerful tool and making it unnecessary to use many different programs for evaluating simulations. This should greatly rationalize and simplify the workflow of analyzing trajectories. The following analysis functions are available:

Static (time independent) Functions:

  • Radial, Angular, Dihedreal or Combined Distribution Function
  • Point-Plane or Point-Line Distance Distribution
  • Plane Projection Distribution
  • Fixed Plane Density Profile
  • Density, Spatial or Dipole Distribution Function

Dynamic (time dependent) Functions:

  • Velocity Distribution Function
  • Mean Square Displacement / Diffusion Coefficients
  • Velocity Autocorrelation Functions
  • Vector Reorientation Dynamics
  • Van Hove Correlation Function
  • Aggregation Functions (DACF, DLDF, DDisp)

Spectroscopic Functions:

  • Calculate Power Spectrum
  • Calculate IR Spectrum
  • Calculate Raman Spectrum

TRAVIS can read trajectory files in XYZ, PDB, LAMMPS or DLPOLY format.

Viewmol is able to graphically aid in the generation of molecular structures for computations and to visualize their results.

At present Viewmol includes input filters for Discover, DMol3, Gamess, Gaussian 9x/03, Gulp, Mopac, PQS, Turbomole, and Vamp outputs as well as for PDB files. Structures can be saved as Accelrys' car-files, MDL files, and Turbomole coordinate files. Viewmol can generate input files for Gaussian 9x/03. Viewmol's file format has been added to OpenBabel so that OpenBabel can serve as an input as well as an output filter for coordinates.

XCrySDen é um programa de visualização de estrutura molecular e cristalina que tem o objetivo de exibir isosuperfícies e contornos, que podem ser sobrepostos em estruturas cristalinas e interativamente rotacionadas e manipuladas. Ele pode ser executado na maioria das plataformas UNIX sem quaisquer requisitos especiais de hardware.

XCrySDen permite a captura em tempo real de exibição. Vários codificadores de filme são suportados, em particular são necessários para conversão de GIF animado (imagemagick), gifsicle ou whirlgif. É necessário para AVI/MPEG mencoder ou ppmtompeg (netpbm). Precisa estar presente para a janela de *dumps", imagemagick ou xwd (x11-apps).
