|Frhodo|

What does Frhodo do?
================

Frhodo is an open-source, GUI-based Python application to simulate
experimental data and optimize chemical kinetics mechanisms using `Cantera `_
as its chemistry solver.

Features include:

* Easing user workload through an intuitive and extensive GUI
* Simulating chemical kinetics experiments using:

* 0D closed, homogeneous, constant-volume reactor
* 0D closed, homogeneous, constant-pressure reactor
* Custom incident shock reactor for reactions behind incident shock waves
* Importing Cantera-valid mechanisms (CTML/XML input format is currently not supported)
* Reading an experimental directory to quickly switch between experimental conditions and measured data
* Displaying simulated observable over experimental data
* Altering mechanisms within memory and update simulation automatically
* Investigating non-observable variables of simulation using the Sim Explorer within Frhodo
* Optimizing mechanism based upon obervables (by hand or by machine learning routine)

* Automatic routine requires bounds on reaction rate constants
* Automatic routine can optimize all three Arrhenius parameters

Installation and Documentation
============

The newest release can be found `here `_. Windows x64 systems can use the installer in the link.

Further installation instructions and documentation can be found in the provided `Manual `_.

Frhodo uses an Anaconda
environment and has been tested on Windows, macOS, and Linux.
