MDAnalysis

MDAnalysis is an object-oriented Python library to analyze trajectories from molecular dynamics (MD) simulations in many popular formats. MDAnalysis allows one to read particle-based trajectories (including individual coordinate frames such as biomolecules in the PDB format) and access the atomic coordinates through NumPy arrays. This provides a flexible and relatively fast framework for complex analysis tasks.
