AI-designed Advanced Materials

Empowering industries with advanced materials tailored for specific applications and outcomes—designed using our Rapid Alloy Design (RAD)™ platform. 

Businesses need new materials to innovate

Slow materials innovation is becoming a bottleneck across industries—limiting performance, driving up costs, and delaying the adoption of new technologies at scale. This is mainly caused by the lengthy and costly experimental trials required to first understand and then optimize the material. Consequently, new materials development has historically been a low return-on-investment (ROI) activity due to high initial costs and extended timelines, discouraging innovation.

Rapid Alloy Design (RAD)™

Our Rapid Alloy Design (RAD)™ platform tackles these challenges by dramatically accelerating materials development. By integrating MatterMind™, Cascade™ Simulations, and our Proprietary Data, we streamline the discovery, optimization, and evaluation of new materials.

 

MatterMind™ uses advanced machine learning to uncover complex relationships between materials and their properties, reducing the need for extensive experimental trials. Cascade™ Simulations apply multi-scale methodologies to understand how nano- and micro-scale behaviors impact real-world material performance, enhancing prediction accuracy and allowing thorough evaluation before physical prototyping. Our Proprietary Data provides a robust foundation for our AI models, ensuring reliable results even when quality data is scarce.

MatterMind™ and Cascade™

Our Rapid Alloy Design (RAD)™ platform leverages two advanced technologies: MatterMind™ and Cascade™

01
MatterMind™

AI-driven Alloy Design

MatterMind™ is our state-of-the-art AI platform that transforms alloy design by combining machine learning with physics-based modelling. It quickly analyzes vast compositional spaces to predict optimal alloy formulations, uncovering complex, non-linear relationships between elements, processing conditions, microstructures, and material properties. By leveraging extensive datasets and advanced algorithms, MatterMind™ can simultaneously balance multiple design objectives—such as strength, ductility, corrosion resistance, and cost. This enables us to develop high-performance, reliable materials tailored to specific industrial applications, significantly reducing both development time and costs compared to traditional methods.

Cascade™

Integrated Multi-Scale Simulations

Cascade™ is our advanced simulation platform that bridges the gap between nano-scale material behaviors and real-world performance. By integrating various simulation techniques across multiple scales, Cascade™ accurately models how microstructural features—like grain size, phase distribution, and defects—influence the overall properties of an alloy. This comprehensive understanding allows us to predict how materials will perform under different conditions before any physical testing. By simulating these behaviors, we can optimize alloy designs more effectively, reducing the need for costly and time-consuming experiments.

Data

Proprietary Datasets for Alloy Design

In the materials science sector, data is often scarce. To address this, we generate our own datasets through a combination of experiments and simulations. This approach yields more consistent, higher-quality data across a diverse range of scenarios. As a result, our models, trained on this proprietary data, demonstrate superior performance and reliability.
