An Interactive Polymer Building Toolkit for Molecular Dynamics Simulations: PolyMAPS
Abstract
PolyMAPS is an open-source library that helps researchers to initialize LAMMPS molecular dynamics simulations. It introduces an integrated workflow by combining preparation, launching, visualization, and analysis into a single Jupyter notebook. PolyMAPS enables users to build small or polymeric molecules in a user-friendly interactive 3D plotting system that supports reading and writing systems in LAMMPS data file format. Hence, PolyMAPS demonstrates the potential of reducing the learning difficulties of new users of the LAMMPS software.
