Computational modelling requires multiscale approaches. Simulation techniques operating on the atomic scale serve as a foundation for such approaches, providing necessary parameters for upper-scale models. The physical models employed for atomic simulations can vary from electronic structure calculations to empirical force fields. However, construction, manipulation and analysis of atomic systems are independent of the given physical model but dependent on the specific application. matscipy implements such tools for applications in materials science, including fracture, plasticity, tribology and electrochemistry.enmatscipyPythoncalculatorsatomic-scale modellingatomic analysis toolsDDC::600 Technik, Medizin, angewandte Wissenschaften::620 Ingenieurwissenschaftenjournal article
