Computational Discovery of Materials

Computational Discovery of Materials

Today we use various materials for a multitude of applications in our constantly evolving world. Unfortunately, it is nearly impossible to experimentally test the properties of all materials for their potential applications. However, armed with fast modern day supercomputers and the theory of quantum mechanics, we can predict the properties of materials, years, or even decades ahead of its real world synthesis! Join us to see how we program using a supercomputers.
