Problem Solving in the Golden Age of Computational Materials Science
Highly efficient software programs such as VASP, unprecedented compute power, and intuitive multiscale modeling environments have made computational materials science an integral part of research and development. In this webinar, you will see how you can use these powerful tools in your research, e.g., optimizing the performance of electronic devices, controlling the properties of interfaces between organic and inorganic materials, unraveling reaction mechanisms, determining the effect of grain boundaries on the diffusion of hydrogen in metallic microstructures, controlling the thermomechanical properties of polymers, and predicting the stress distribution in PVD-grown thin films.
