A method to computationally screen for tunable properties of crystalline alloys [PDF]
Conventionally, high-throughput computational materials searches start from an input set of bulk compounds extracted from material databases, and this set is screened for candidate materials for specific applications. In contrast, many functional materials, and especially semiconductors, are heavily engineered alloys or solid solutions of multiple ...

Application of Green Building Materials in Civil Engineering Construction [PDF]
The continuous economic and social progress of our country has helped the rapid progress of civil engineering projects. However, the relatively improved civil engineering project creation also has many shortcomings, such as waste of resources, depletion, and pollution of the natural environment. The construction project itself is an item.

Probabilistic selection and design of concrete using machine learning [PDF]
Development of robust concrete mixes with a lower environmental impact is challenging due to natural variability in constituent materials and a multitude of possible combinations of mix proportions. Making reliable property predictions with machine learning can facilitate performance-based specification of concrete, reducing material inefficiencies and
