CascadesDB
CascadesDB is a database of molecular dynamics simulations of collision cascades, developed by the International Atomic Energy Agency. The project was initiated by the 5th meeting of the IAEA's Code Centres Network in November 2017 to enhance the usage and long-term curation of collisional cascade simulations for the analysis and prediction of radiation damage in materials for fusion and fission applications.
Materials
Cu (19), Fe (71), Ni (8), Pd (9), Pt (12), W (201)
Advisory Board
The development and maintenance of CascadesDB is overseen by an international scientific committee with the following membership:
- Andrea Sand, Aalto University, Finland (Chair)
- María Caturla, University of Alicante, Spain
- Sergei Dudarev, UK Atomic Energy Authority, UK
- Christian Hill, International Atomic Energy Agency
- Wahyu Setyawan, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, USA
Contributing data
Simulation data should be archives of plain-text XYZ files, with optional supplementary files such as simulation code input files. An archive may contain several simulations that differ only in the PKA recoil direction or initial lattice thermalisation. Each archive is described by a metadata file, in JSON or plain text: see Contributing. To contribute, please get in touch.
