pylimer-tools

pylimer-tools is a collection of utility python functions for handling handling bead-spring polymers in Python. This toolbox provides an Monte Carlo (MC) structure generator, simulation methods for Dissipative Particle Dynamics (DPD) with slip-springs, implementations of the Maximum Entropy Homogenization Procedure (MEHP), with and without slip-links, and various means to read LAMMPS output: be it data, dump or thermodynamic data files. Additionally, it provides various methods to calculate properties of the bead-spring networks, such as computing the radius of gyration, mean end to end distance, finding loops, or simply splitting a polymer network back up into its chains.
