Book Combinatorial and Artificial Intelligence Methods in Materials Science II

Download or read book Combinatorial and Artificial Intelligence Methods in Materials Science II written by Radislav A. Potyrailo and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2014-06-05 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past two years, combinatorial and artificial intelligence methods in materials science have become more accepted as a means to synthesize, test, characterize, and predict promising candidate materials. These methods open up the exploration of multidimensional chemical composition and process parameter space at a previously unavailable level of detail and can rapidly optimize molecular properties and process conditions that are difficult to predict using existing knowledge. Scientists from academic, industrial and governmental laboratories worldwide come together here with interdisciplinary presentations that: identify gaps in cross-discipline knowledge that hinder further research; outline emerging development areas; and stimulate nontraditional solutions to difficult multidisciplinary problems in high-throughput materials research. Topics include: combinatorial approaches to electronics materials, polymers and coatings, and nanomaterials and catalysts; instrumentation and methods for high-throughput analysis; and library design, data management and informatics. In particular, the book demonstrates that combinatorial methods have matured in catalyst research. Several remarkable scale-up reports are presented signifying the power of this new scientific methodology.

Book Materials in Extreme Environments  Volume 929

Download or read book Materials in Extreme Environments Volume 929 written by Daryush Ila and published by . This book was released on 2006-09-15 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates the fundamental properties and response of materials in extreme environments such as static and dynamic high pressure, high strain and high strain-rates, high radiation and electromagnetic fields, high and low temperatures, corrosive conditions, environments causing embrittlement, and environments containing atomic oxygen. This is an extremely active and vibrant field of research, in particular because it is now possible to create laboratory conditions similar in pressure, temperature and radiation to those found in planetary interiors and in space. In addition, advanced simulation methods, coupled with high-performance computing platforms, now afford predictions - on a first-principles basis - of the properties of materials in extreme environments. Scientists from a broad spectrum of fields are represented, including space science, planetary science, high-pressure research, shock physics, ultrafast science, and energetic materials research.

Book Information Science for Materials Discovery and Design

Download or read book Information Science for Materials Discovery and Design written by Turab Lookman and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-12-12 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with an information-driven approach to plan materials discovery and design, iterative learning. The authors present contrasting but complementary approaches, such as those based on high throughput calculations, combinatorial experiments or data driven discovery, together with machine-learning methods. Similarly, statistical methods successfully applied in other fields, such as biosciences, are presented. The content spans from materials science to information science to reflect the cross-disciplinary nature of the field. A perspective is presented that offers a paradigm (codesign loop for materials design) to involve iteratively learning from experiments and calculations to develop materials with optimum properties. Such a loop requires the elements of incorporating domain materials knowledge, a database of descriptors (the genes), a surrogate or statistical model developed to predict a given property with uncertainties, performing adaptive experimental design to guide the next experiment or calculation and aspects of high throughput calculations as well as experiments. The book is about manufacturing with the aim to halving the time to discover and design new materials. Accelerating discovery relies on using large databases, computation, and mathematics in the material sciences in a manner similar to the way used to in the Human Genome Initiative. Novel approaches are therefore called to explore the enormous phase space presented by complex materials and processes. To achieve the desired performance gains, a predictive capability is needed to guide experiments and computations in the most fruitful directions by reducing not successful trials. Despite advances in computation and experimental techniques, generating vast arrays of data; without a clear way of linkage to models, the full value of data driven discovery cannot be realized. Hence, along with experimental, theoretical and computational materials science, we need to add a “fourth leg’’ to our toolkit to make the “Materials Genome'' a reality, the science of Materials Informatics.
