Computational Materials Design

The atomic modeling group specializes in predicting material properties using ab initio methods.

Our main areas of focus are:

  • Thermodynamic constants
  • Mechanical material properties
  • Interface design

Our range of services:

  • Temperature-dependent thermal expansion coefficients
  • Elastic properties (elastic tensor, macroscopic elastic moduli) as a function of chemical composition
  • Grain boundary segregation and grain boundary strength
