HOOMD-blue

HOOMD-blue is a Python-driven particle simulation engine for molecular dynamics and hard-particle Monte Carlo simulations. It was designed from the ground up for GPU acceleration, with a high-performance C++ and CUDA backend. The software is especially useful for nano-scale, colloidal, polymer, soft matter, and materials simulations. Its Python interface lets users build simulation and analysis workflows using familiar scientific Python tools. HOOMD-blue supports efficient parallel execution and has been used for large-scale GPU-based simulations. Its main value is combining a flexible Python user experience with strong GPU performance for modern particle simulation research.
