htpolynet 1.0.7.2

Automated MD System Builder for Amorphous Network Polymers

HTPolyNet

High-Throughput Polymer Network Atomistic Simulations

HTPolyNet is a Python utility for generating atomistic models of cross-linked polymer networks together with appropriate topology and parameter files required for molecular dynamics simulations using Gromacs. It is intended as a fully automated system builder requiring as inputs only the molecular structures of any monomer species, a description of the polymerization chemistry, and a handful of options describing desired system size and composition. HTPolyNet uses the Generalized Amber Force Field for atom-typing and parameter generation.

Installation

The programs antechamber, parmchk2 and tleap from AmberTools must be in your path.

From PyPI:

pip install htpolynet

From source:

git clone [e-mail]:AbramsGroup/HTPolyNet.git
cd HTPolyNet
pip install -e .

Once installed, the user has access to the main htpolynet command.
