Mesoscale Microstructure Simulation Project (MMSP)
Reading Time: 3 minutesMesoscale Microstructure Simulation Project (MMSP) is a computational framework designed to provide a simple, consistent, and extensible programming interface for grid- and mesh-based methods used to simulate microstructure evolution at the mesoscale. The project addresses a common challenge in computational materials science: enabling researchers to apply a wide range of numerical methods—such as Monte Carlo, […]
TheraPy: Modeling Microstructure Evolution in Drug–Polymer Systems
Reading Time: 3 minutesTheraPy is a collection of Python scripts developed to model the evolution of chemical and physical inhomogeneities—commonly referred to as microstructure—in drug–polymer composite systems used for controlled drug release coatings. These coatings are widely applied in medical devices where drug delivery must be carefully regulated over time. TheraPy focuses on capturing how microstructure forms during […]
Gibbs: A Multi-Physics Thermodynamics Calculation and Visualization Suite
Reading Time: 3 minutesGibbs is a multi-component thermodynamics calculation and visualization suite designed as a general-purpose framework for computing thermodynamic properties, phase equilibria, and phase stability. The project is developed as an open-source platform to support thermodynamics research, model validation, and comparative studies, while also serving as a foundation for educational tools in materials science and related disciplines. […]
RheoPlast
Reading Time: 3 minutesRheoPlast is an open-source finite difference multi-physics code developed for phase-field simulations. Created by Adam Powell, David Dussault, Bo Zhou, Jorge Vieyra, and Wanida Pongsaksawad, the project emerged in the early 2000s as a high-performance computational framework for modeling complex material systems. Designed primarily for research applications, RheoPlast combines numerical efficiency, parallel scalability, and advanced […]
