Overview

NAMD is a parallel, object-oriented molecular dynamics code designed for high-performance simulation of large biomolecular systems.

NAMD scales to hundreds of processors on high-end parallel platforms and tens of processors on commodity clusters using switched fast ethernet. NAMD is file-compatible with AMBER, CHARMM, and X-PLOR.

NAMD is developed by the University of Illinois.

Licence requirements

To access NAMD you need to have registered at the Developer's website and let us know your username. The user registration page is linked through the download links so you will need to click an download link (but you don't need to proceed to download as far as we're concerned). We are assuming that through the registration process you have read and agreed to the NAMD licence agreement.

Once this is obtained, please request to join software group on https://my.nci.org.au if you wish to request access.

Note: that the registration process is the same as for VMD so if you have already registered for VMD you can provide those details.
