This repository contains visuals from MANIAC Monte Carlo simulation code.
MANIAC-MC is a lightweight Monte Carlo simulation code written in Fortran, designed for GCMC and adsorption studies. It reads basic LAMMPS-style topology files and supports several Monte Carlo moves, including translation, rotation, insertion, deletion, and swap. It also allows for the calculation of excess chemical potential using the Widom insertion move.

The original MANIAC computer (for Mathematical Analyzer, Numerical Integrator, and Computer) was built in the early 1950s at Los Alamos National Laboratory. It was one of the first machines used to perform Monte Carlo simulations in statistical physics and nuclear research.
Original code written by Simon Gravelle, LIPhy, CNRS.
