We propose a new strategy to solve the Tkatchenko-Scheffler Many-Body Dispersion (MBD) model’s equations. Our approach overcomes the original O(N**3) computational complexity that limits its applicability to large molecular systems within thecontext of O(N) Density Functional Theory (DFT). First, in order to generate…

We present a new algorithm for the optimization of molecular structures to saddle points on the potential energy surface using a redundant internal coordinate system. This algorithm automates the procedure of defining the internal coordinate system, including the handling of linear bending angles, e.g. through the…

We develop a highly parallelizable algorithm to calculate long-range electrostatic interactions named the Gauss-Legendre-Spherical-t (GLST) cubature method. Motivated by our recent spherical grid and treecode method, we utilize the Gauss-Legendre quadrature for integration over a finite range and spherical t-design for…

We present here an open-source Julia library for the topological identification of crystalline materials, with algorithmic and computational improvements over the previously available software in the field, resulting in a speed increase of one order of magnitude. This new algorithm and implementation can therefore be…

Based on a series of energy minimizations with starting structures obtained from the Baker test set of 30 organic molecules, a comparison is made between various open-source geometry optimization codes that are interfaced with the open-source QUantum Interaction Computational Kernel (QUICK) program for gradient and…

We present a novel, flexible framework for electronic structure interfaces designed for nonadiabatic dynamics simulations, implemented in Python 3 using concepts of object-oriented programming. This framework streamlines the development of new interfaces by providing a reusable and extendable code base. It supports the…

With the ever-increasing demand for atomistic structures representative of real-life systems as well as the ad-vent of exascale computers, it has now become necessary and possible to use advanced global optimization (GO) techniques to intelligently sample the potential energy surface (PES). Given the previous studies…

As a prove of concept for experimental geochemistry, an advanced 3D numerical framework, here and after called Digital Twin (DT), of a diffusion experiment conducted at a synchrotron beamline, has been implemented using in-situ measurements data, physics-based modelling, a machine learning (ML) model, and parameter…

Quantum Package is an open-source programming environment for quantum chemistry specially designed for wave function methods. Its main goal is the development of determinant-driven selected configuration interaction (sCI) methods and multi-reference second-order perturbation theory (PT2). The determinant-driven…

Algorithms are presented for performing a topological analysis of an arbitrary function, evaluated on an arbitrary grid of points. These algorithms work strictly by post-processing the data and require no additional function evaluations. This is achieved by connecting the grid points with a neighbourhood graph…

Trajectory surface-hopping (TSH) methods have become the most used approach in nonadiabatic molecular dynamics. The increasingly popular curvature-driven schemes represent a subset of TSH based on implicit local diabatization of potential energy surfaces. Their appeal partly stems from compatibility with…

Terminally labeled DNA oligonucleotides have wide applications in modern biology and biotechnological applications. It has been observed that the fluorescent intensity of light released from these fluorescent labels is heavily influenced by the terminal sequence of nucleotides. Recent studies have assayed and published…

Deriving versatile and robust mechanistic models from experimental data is a key challenge in engineering and natural sciences. This is especially true in chemical reaction engineering, where reactor manufacturers and operators increasingly pursue the development and maintenance of digital twins that rely on frequent…

Conventional molecular simulation approaches are based on calculating the forces acting on individual atoms in a molecular system, followed by numerical integration of the corresponding Newtonian equations of motion. Algorithms such as the Velocity Verlet scheme are typically employed to propagate these dynamics and…
