The Open Databases Integration for Materials Design (OPTIMADE) application programming interface (API) empowers users with holistic access to a growing federation of databases, enhancing the accessibility and discoverability of materials and chemical data. ...
Interactive notebooks are a precious tool for creating graphical user interfaces and teaching materials. Python and Jupyter are becoming increasingly popular in this context, with Jupyter widgets at the core of the interactive functionalities. However, whi ...
In this paper we present the Open Software Services for Classrooms and Research (OSSCAR) platform. OSSCAR provides an open collaborative environment to develop and access educational resources in the form of web applications, for which various deployment m ...
Rare events include many of the most interesting transformation processes in condensed matter, from phase transitions to biomolecular conformational changes to chemical reactions. Access to the corresponding mechanisms, free-energy landscapes and kinetic r ...
Speed and efficiency of codes for atomistic simulations can be improved through refactoring and tailoring for GPU architectures. This activity, however, comes with associated, often overlooked, costs, namely a reduced readability and flexibility upon optim ...
We show how to construct, by exploiting adiabatic time and length scale separation between atomistic and continuum mechanics, a multiscale scheme for continuum dynamics free from macroscopic constitutive modeling. To do so, we introduce a new set of degree ...
This paper reviews methods that aim at simulating nuclear quantum effects (NQEs) using generalized thermal baths. Generalized (or quantum) baths simulate statistical quantum features, and in particular zero-point energy effects, through non-Markovian stoch ...
Electrochemistry is central to many applications, ranging from biology to energy science. Studies now involve a wide range of techniques, both experimental and theoretical. Modeling and simulations methods, such as density functional theory or molecular dy ...
A new algorithm for efficient and fully time-reversible integration of first-principles molecular dynamics based on orbital-free density functional theory (OFDFT) is presented. The algorithm adapts to this nontrivial case, the recently introduced Mass-Zero ...
