Can Computer Simulations Revolutionize Material Design?

[fysik]

hello

are there software to design alloys in silico or other materials and see how they would perform?

thanks!

To my knowledge, there is nothing that works from first principles, but it is possible to interpolate between properties of existing alloys.

You need to zoom out and think more carefully about the problem you are trying to solve.
