In the Mix

by Sara Shoemaker Mixing metals into alloys is an age-old practice. The tedious trial and error of heating, cooling, testing, and remixing was once the only method to fine-tune the best blend of metals for ideal strength and durability. In recent times, computational scientists have developed a faster, more precise…

OLCF 25: Revealing the Quantum World of Materials

In 2017, the Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility celebrated 25 years of leadership in high-performance computing. This article is part of a series summarizing a dozen significant contributions to science enabled by OLCF resources. The full report is available here. Metals and alloys are ubiquitous, so we may barely notice them.…
