Acoustic Research Tool (ART)
Acoustic Simulation Library for Frequency and Time Domain Simulations.
ART is a flexible simulation framework for wind instruments. It includes a growing library of modelling elements. So far bore discontinuities, branches, tone holes, cylindrical and conical tubes, Bessel horns and bent tubes are available for frequency domain modelling. In the time domain generic bidirectional propagation elements, scattering elements, fractional delays, convolution with reflection functions and general z-domain networks are available and can be described using MuParserX expressions. Cylindrical and conical ducts can also be defined based on their geometry. Available models and their parameters can be enumerated and combined to form simulators for complex acoustical structures. Parameters can be specified symbolically by expressions containing other parameter values or global variables. Dependencies between parameters are resolved at run time. However, MuParserX expressions are compiled at design time. Zero-delay loops are detected and reported. -

VASPMO
Visualization of wavefunctions calculated by VASP (New release: v0.41)
VASPMO aims at visualizing wavefunctions (or molecular orbitals) from VASP calculations. It reads VASP's output files PROCAR and CONTCAR, and exports an *.out file in Gaussian's output format, which can be visualized by many popular visualization tools, such as JMol, Molekel, Chemcraft, Gabedit and Molden, etc. These tools can further generate *.cube files, which can be visualized by an even wider range of softwares. 读入VASP计算得到的PROCAR和CONTCAR文件，输出Gaussian结果文件。该文件能够被常用的量子化学可视化软件（如Molekel、Chemcraft、Gabedit、Molden和JMol等）读取，进而绘制和观看体系的分子轨道。有些软件还能导出 cube文件（如Chemcraft和Molden等），从而又能被很多支持cube格式文件的可视化软件所识别。
