Title
A single sentence description.
Verification check for memory leaks using Valgrind v004
Description Check that the model has no memory leaks. This is tested using the Valgrind memory debugging tool (http://valgrind.org) by performing a series of energy and force calculations on a randomly distorted face-centered cubic (FCC) cube base structure for both non-periodic and periodic boundary conditions. Separate configurations are tested for each species supported by the model, as well as one containing a random distribution of all species. Configurations used for testing are provided as auxiliary files.


HISTORY:

Changes in version 003:
* Tear down calculator and create new one intermittently in case the model uses global/static variables that could indirectly result in a memory leak
