ISAACS (interactive structure analysis of amorphous and crystalline systems) is a cross-platform program developed to analyze the structural characteristics of three-dimensional structure models built by computer simulations. The models may have any degree of periodicity (i.e. crystallinity) and local symmetry. The following structural information is computed from the models: total and partial radial distribution functions and structure factors for X-ray or neutron scattering, coordination numbers, bond-angle and near atomic neighbor distributions, bond-valence sums, ring statistics, and spherical harmonics invariants. The information may be visualized conveniently and stored for further use.
