Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

The Novel Materials Discovery Laboratory, is a European Centre of Excellence (CoE) dedicated to Big-Data in materials science. NOMAD creates, collects, stores, and cleanses data, computed by the most important materials-science codes. NOMAD develops data-mining tools in order to find structure, correlations, and novel information that could not be discovered from studying smaller data sets. The large volume of data and innovative tools will enable researchers in basic science and engineering to advance materials science, identify new physical phenomena, and help industry to improve existing and develop novel products and technologies. This app can be used to explore in virtual reality crystal structures from the NOMAD Encyclopedia (https://encyclopedia-gui.nomad-coe.eu/#/search/) or other sources, molecular dynamics with or without electron density, and Fermi surfaces. You will need an unzip application in order to expand the crystal structures provided by the encyclopedia. You may also provide your own datasets and configuration files. The application supports atomic data from xyz or cube files, and pre-processed ply files for isosurfaces of density. A configuration file (.ncfg) instructs the app on the visualization parameters. See https://nomad-coe.eu/the-project/graphics for details.

NOMAD VR APK: questions and answers

Can I install this APK over the version I already have?

Only if it is signed with the same certificate as the copy on your phone and isn't an older version. If Android says “App not installed”, the certificates differ; uninstalling your copy first works but deletes its data unless it is backed up.

Is the NOMAD VR APK safe?

No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Trusted. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is 8ae7718a1b3b3400112f05d28a94593e.
