A molecular dynamics engine developed in-house for studying defect mechanics, dislocation core structures, and material behavior at the atomic scale. Supports Tcl scripting and Python interfaces.
Browse MD++ 01 Dislocation DynamicsParallel Dislocation Simulator — a large-scale code for three-dimensional dislocation dynamics. Models plastic deformation from the mesoscale structure of dislocation networks in crystalline materials.
Browse ParaDiS 02 Interactive AppA browser app for the OpenDiS dislocation dynamics tutorials — set up and run PyDiS and ExaDiS simulations step by step, watch their output live, and explore the dislocation network in 3-D. No installation needed.
Launch App 03 Knowledge BaseManuals, tutorials, and documentation for the group’s codes and workflows — including MD++ and ParaDiS guides, simulation setup notes, and resources for group members and collaborators.
Open Wiki 04Codes, datasets, and technical documentation produced by the Cai Group at Stanford Mechanical Engineering. Maintained for use by group members, collaborators, and the broader computational mechanics community. web.stanford.edu/~caiwei
