Abstract
SUMMARY
n-dimensional energy surfaces are becoming computationally accessible, yet interpreting their information is not straightforward. We present minimum energy path surface analysis over n-dimensional surfaces (MEPSAnd), an open source GUI-based program that natively calculates minimum energy paths across energy surfaces of any number of dimensions. Among other features, MEPSAnd can compute the path through lowest barriers and automatically provide a set of alternative paths. MEPSAnd offers distinct plotting solutions as well as direct python scripting.
AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION
MEPSAnd is freely available (under GPLv3 license) at: http://bioweb.cbm.uam.es/software/MEPSAnd/.
