Journal of Structural Chemistry Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

The program is a computer realization of the bond valence method (BVM), used to predict bond lengths in crystal structures from topological data. Using object-oriented programming made it possible to analyze structures of any complexity (up to 6480 crystal chemical positions). Hardware and software requirements: i486DX processor, operating system Windows 3.1/95, 4M RAM, and about 2M disk space. The program was developed at the Crystallography and Crystal Chemistry Department, Geological Faculty, Moscow State University.
