CASTEP

Short Description: Simulation pkg for electronic relaxation

Long Description:
The CASTEP package is capable of simulating electronic relaxation to ground state for metals, insulators, or semiconductors. Using these techniques, CASTEP can calculate forces acting on atoms and stress on the unit cell. Atomic forces can be used either to find the equilibrium structure or to perform molecular dynamics simulation (either canonical or microcanonical ensemble). Although CASTEP is primarily intented for use on large-scale periodic systems, it can also be applied to supercells constructed to study defects, surfaces/interfaces, and molecules.
