New framework applies machine learning to atomistic modeling


 E-Mail
Northwestern University researchers have developed a new framework using machine learning that improves the accuracy of interatomic potentials the guiding rules describing how atoms interact in new materials design. The findings could lead to more accurate predictions of how new materials transfer heat, deform, and fail at the atomic scale.
Designing new nanomaterials is an important aspect of developing next-generation devices used in electronics, sensors, energy harvesting and storage, optical detectors, and structural materials. To design these materials, researchers create interatomic potentials through atomistic modeling, a computational approach that predicts how these materials behave by accounting for their properties at the smallest level. The process to establish materials interatomic potential called parameterization has required significant chemical and physical intuition, leading to less accurate prediction of new materials design. ....

Japanese art technique inspires new engineering technique

‘Kirigami cuts’ can be used to create 3D microstructures and nanotools
Paper snowflakes, pop-up children’s books and elaborate paper cards are of interest to more than just crafters. A team of Northwestern University engineers is using ideas taken from paper-folding practices to create a sophisticated alternative to 3D printing.
Kirigami comes from the Japanese words “kiru”(to cut) and “kami”(paper) and is a traditional form of art in which paper is precisely cut and transformed into a 3D object. Using thin films of material and software to select exact geometric cuts, engineers can create a wide range of complex structures by taking inspiration from the practice.  ....
