polypy

**(9 march 2016) this project is continued on github : http://jaapkroe.github.io/polypy **

Python script to analyze (shortest-path) rings in structures read from xyz-files. It can be useful for example to identify defects in crystal structures or molecules.

Features

Shortest-path ring search using Franzblau statistics [Phys. Rev. B 44, 4925]
Output structures marked for visualization (see screenshots)
detect subgraphs; defect clusters; atom chains; neighbor shells
Progress bars!
