zeose 0.0.1

A package with functions that automate zeolite structure building processes

Zeolite Simulation Environment

Authors: Jerry T. Crum, Justin R. Crum

Description

This is a package to automate zeolite structure generation and characterization for computational chemistry.

Requirements

This package is built around the ASE atoms object, and thus requires installation of ASE, available at: https://wiki.fysik.dtu.dk/ase/install.html.

Ring finding uses graph theory implemented by NetworkX, available at: https://networkx.github.io.

Numpy is also required.

Installation

Clone this git repository,

git clone https://github.com/jtcrum/zse

and then install it with pip:

pip install ./zse

Current Modules

To see how to use each of the modules, please visit examples.

• zse.cation
• zse.cif_tools
• zse.collections
• zse.protonate
• zse.rings
• zse.substitute
• zse.tpairs
• zse.utilities
