Here you can find the previous versions of the program.

The proposed development directions[edit]

  • Add temperature regulation by Hoover‘s thermostat.
  • The program's evaluation speed in order to optimize it.
  • Apply the copying principle.
  • Add different potentials.
  • Add the ability to set viscoelastic walls anywhere.
  • Add the periodic boundary conditions.
