Materials


The simulation of material properties in production and use helps to optimise industrial processes, predict failure and quantify risk. Where only limited data is available from measurements of material structure, sophisticated analysis is required to retrieve the maximum information content. Simulation and data analysis are also useful tools for the design of devices used in the measurement of material properties.
