SCINE - KiNetX

Introduction

The primary objective of SCINE KiNetX is to model the kinetics of complex chemical reaction networks combined with rigorous uncertainty quantification. This is necessary to discover product distributions and reaction mechanisms and to evaluate their reliability. Besides routine kinetic analysis of arbitrary reaction networks, KiNetX can be utilized to steer the exploration of chemical reaction space to accelerate this exploration, by steering the exploration away from species which are kinetically irrelevant.

Installation and Usage

The following software packages are required in order to compile SCINE KiNetX:

  • A C++ compiler supporting the C++17 standard (GCC at least 7.3.0 or later)
  • CMake (at least version 3.9.0)
  • Eigen3 (at least version 3.3.2 or later)
  • Boost (recommended: version 1.65.0 or later)

SCINE KiNetX can be built using a standard CMake/make setup:

git submodule update --init
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DSCINE_BUILD_PYTHON_BINDINGS=ON ..
make
make test
make install
