Thank you for your interest.

Since graphite is widely used as a lithium battery anode, engineers should understand the change in the elastic response during charging and discharging.

This is a critical step in improving the accuracy of engineering models of electrode design.

First-principles computations reliably predict elastic properties of materials and empower engineers to complete experimental data with a high level of confidence.

In particular, you can use MedeA to predict the mechanical properties of battery materials under wide-ranging conditions to provide insight into the underlying physical mechanisms that lead to stress, deformation and eventual structural failure.
