LAMMPS

A modular particle-simulation engine with a broad range of classical interaction models, materials methods and optional packages for large-scale simulations.

Where it fits

Metals, polymers, interfaces and other systems with validated interaction potentials.

Limits and practical considerations

Available pair styles are not automatically compatible; the potential must match the chemistry and units.

Licensing and access

GPL open source; optional dependencies and potential files can have additional terms.
