A brownian colloid simulator.
BCIM is currently being developed to study the dynamics of coculture colloidal systems (namely cancerous-healthy cell systems). BCIM is designed to also address systems of many species where species have varying interactions between them.
(From documentation)
BCIM's simulation portion is written in the Julia programming language.
It is built using a relatively recent release of the development build (0.4
).
It may work on the current stable release (0.3.6
), though it has not been tested.
The nightly build is recommended as development on BCIM is done on the developmental
release branch. Nightlies can be found on the Julia download page
. Better yet,
build julia from source using the directions on the Julia github
.
Post processing is done in python 3.6
, though any release of python 3
should work.
Follow a guide online on how to install python 3
for your environment.
BCIM uses Matplotlib
for graphics and Numpy
for numerical work.
Both can be installed using pip
::
pip install numpy matplotlib
BCIM can be installed by cloning into the git repository on github::
git clone https://github.com/dankolbman/BCIM
cd BCIM
The src
directory will have to be added to your shell path or the
src/julia/BCIM.jl
module can be inculeded by absolute reference inside
your run files.
