AMEP 1.0.0 Release Notes

This is the first public version of AMEP. It fully integrates the analysis of
continuum simulation data, fixes various bugs of version 0.5.0, and provides
useful new features. It is also the first version that is available from PyPI via pip.

AMEP 1.0.0 supports Python 3.10.0 or higher and requires the following Python libraries:

• h5py (3.7.0 or higher)
• matplotlib (3.6.2 or higher)
• numba (0.56.4 or higher)
• numpy (1.21.6 or higher)
• scipy (1.10.0 or higher)
• scikit-image (0.20.0 or higher)
• tqdm (4.65.0 or higher)

New features:

• gyration tensor and inertia tensor added to amep.continuum.cluster_properties (LH)
• new modes for amep.evaluate.ClusterGrowth (KS)
• amep.plot.draw_box with new text features (KD)
• new cluster detection method for continuum data (KS)
• pbc keyword now consitently available in all evaluate classes (LH)
• property time added to amep.base.BaseField (KS)
• physical time added to continuum data format (KS)
• parallelized calculation of distance matrix (ME, LH)

Bug fixes:

• traj.animate colorbar bug fixed (LH)
• loading trajectories bug when loading process interrupted fixed (LH, KD)

• new plot styles are now installed when installing AMEP via pip (KS)
• amep.plot.format_axis improved (LH, ME)

Deprecation and removals:

• local_density in module order replaced by the three functions local_number_density, local_mass_density, and local_packing_fraction (LH)
