autoDIAS

a python tool for an automated Distortion/Interaction Activation Strain Analysis

The Distortion/Interaction Activation Strain (DIAS) analysis is a powerful tool for the investigation of energy barriers. However, setup and data analysis of such a calculation can be cumbersome and requires lengthy intervention of the user. We present autoDIAS, a python tool for the automated setup, performance, and data extraction of the DIAS analysis, including automated detection of fragments and relevant geometric parameters.
