Schrodinger

The Schrodinger molecular modeling software suite includes a number of popular programs focused on drug design and materials science but of general applicability, for example Glide, Jaguar, and MacroModel.  Maestro is the graphical user interface for the suite.  It allows the user to construct and graphically manipulate both simple and complex chemical structures, to apply molecular mechanics and dynamics techniques to evaluate the energies and geometries of molecules in vacuo or in solution, and to display and examine graphically the results of the modeli

OpenMPI

MPI is a standard library for performing parallel processing using a distributed memory model. The Pitzer, Ascend, and Cardinal clusters at OSC can use the OpenMPI implementation of the Message Passing Interface (MPI).

ANSYS Mechanical

ANSYS Mechanical is a finite element analysis (FEA) tool that enables you to analyze complex product architectures and solve difficult mechanical problems. You can use ANSYS Mechanical to simulate real world behavior of components and sub-systems, and customize it to test design variations quickly and accurately.

Availability and Restrictions

ANSYS Mechanical is available on the Cardinal Cluster. You can see the currently available versions in the table on the main Ansys page here.

GNU Compilers

Fortran, C and C++ compilers produced by the GNU Project.

Versions

The GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) are available on all our clusters. These are the versions currently available:

CCAPP Dedicated Compute

The CCAPP condo is available on the Cardinal cluster beginning Monday, November 18, 2024. Condo on the Pitzer cluster is terminated on December 30, 2024.

Dedicated compute services at OSC (also refered to as Condo model) involves users purchasing one or more compute nodes for the shared cluster while OSC provides the infrastructure, as well as maintenance and services. CCAPP Condo on Cardinal cluster is owned by the Center for Cosmology and AstroParticle Physics, at OSU. 

Parallel-netCDF

Parallel-netCDF is a library providing high-performance parallel I/O while still maintaining file-format compatibility with  Unidata's NetCDF, specifically the formats of CDF-1 and CDF-2. Although NetCDF supports parallel I/O starting from version 4, the files must be in HDF5 format. PnetCDF is currently the only choice for carrying out parallel I/O on files that are in classic formats (CDF-1 and 2). In addition, PnetCDF supports the CDF-5 file format, an extension of CDF-2, that supports more data types and allows users to define large dimensions, attributes, and variables (>2B elements).

Q-Chem

Q-Chem is a general purpose ab initio electronic structure program. Its latest version emphasizes Self-Consistent Field, especially Density Functional Theory, post Hartree-Fock, and innovative algorithms for fast performance and reduced scaling calculations. Geometry optimizations, vibrational frequencies, thermodynamic properties, and solution modeling are available.

Boost

Boost is a set of C++ libraries that provide helpful data structures and numerous support functions in a wide range of aspects of programming, such as, image processing, gpu programming, concurrent programming, along with many algorithms.  Boost is portable and performs well on a wide variety of platforms.
