About

Hi! I am a Ph.D. student at the Charles University in Prague. I am interested in many things. Here is a brief list of examples:

I do computer simulations: Molecular Dynamics, Monte Carlo, Self-Consistent Field, ab initio simulations and hybrids (see fancy pictures).

• 

  This is my main language to use. I did several projects with it. A few examples: Storer, Maxwell Construction, Plotter, ...


• 

  I am working on open source project. My task was implementing an separate engine (Cleng=Clamped Engine) based on established solver.


• 

  I am building neural networks using PyTorch framework.
  Stay tuned.
• 

  I interested in embedded development. Here are small pet IoT project one and pet project two.


• Project

  I am developing an interactive simulation package. It helps to get familiar with computer simulations. It based on ESPResSo package. Tools: Python, PyQt framework.


• 

  I wrote something simple for fun. Currently, I am in search of something worth implementing... Do you have an idea? :)


• 

  I implemented a water model SPC/E from computational chemistry using this fancy language.

Personal qualities

Perseverance, ambition, curiosity, diligence, outgoing person.
