RSM (Radiation Spectrum Method) is a 2D rigorous tool to solve the Maxwell equations for the propagation of light in integrated optics or photonics devices. It makes use of an EigenMode Expansion method (EME) to solve the electromagnetic problem. This software running on Windows and MacOS comes with a GUI that permits to define with the aid of files or scripts the arbitrary and complex geometry of the waveguide. Of that way any waveguide geometry can be handled. Several plots are available : refractive index plot, field propagation plot and modes spectrum plot. This permits, with the interpretation of the guided and radiation modes spectrum, a physical understanding of the propagation mechanisms in the integrated optical device under evaluation. The complex geometry of the component is discretized in a stack of multilayer dielectric waveguides. For Windows, download "RSM_visit_update2.zip" , this file needs the last version of the software be first installed : "RSM VisitSetup2.ex

Advanced Simulation Library (ASL) is a free and open source multiphysics simulation software package. Its computational engine is based, among others, on the Lattice Boltzmann Methods (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lattice_Boltzmann_methods) and is written in OpenCL (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenCL) which enable extraordinarily efficient deployment (http://asl.org.il/benchmarks) on a variety of massively parallel architectures, ranging from inexpensive FPGAs, DSPs and GPUs up to heterogeneous clusters and supercomputers. The engine is hidden entirely behind C++ classes, so that no OpenCL knowledge is required from application programmers. ASL can be utilized to model various coupled physical and chemical phenomena and employed in a multitude of fields: computational fluid dynamics, virtual sensing, industrial process data validation and reconciliation, image-guided surgery, computer-aided engineering, high-performance scientific computing, etc..

The Lightweight Integrating Multiphysics Environment for coupling codes (LIME) is a small software package for creating multiphysics simulation codes. LIME is intended to be especially useful when separate computer codes (which may be written in any standard computer language) already exist to solve different parts of a multiphysics problem. LIME provides the key high-level software (written in C++), a well defined approach (with example templates), and interface requirements to enable the assembly of multiple physics codes into a single coupled-physics simulation code. To achieve its flexible lightweight design objectives, LIME 1.0 requires that some amount of customized software be written each time a new multiphysics application is created. Also, modest high-level revisions or modifications to most stand-alone physics codes may be required to meet interface requirements. Detailed descriptions of these requirements together with example cases are provided in a users guide.

Note: This package has been superseded by a Python-only package. See https://github.com/ulflor/wavepacket for the follow-up project. WavePacket is a program package for numerical simulation of quantum-mechanical wavepacket dynamics of distinguishable particles. It can be used to solve single or coupled time-independent or time-dependent (linear) Schrödinger and Liouville-von Neumann-equations. Optionally accounting for the interaction with external electric fields within the semiclassical dipole approximation, WavePacket can be used to simulate modern experiments involving ultrashort light pulses in photo-induced physics or chemistry. WavePacket is suitable for teaching quantum mechanics as well as for research projects in physics and chemistry. The present C++ version is an object-oriented rewrite of the existing Matlab version aiming to be more flexible. In particular, the goals are easy handling of open and closed systems and support for unusual setups.

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。

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.
