Dear colleagues,

We are organizing a symposium dedicated to the computational design of ceramics and glasses at the MS&T16 conference (Oct. 23-27 2016, Salt Lake City). The deadline for abstract submission is March 31.

Abstract submission:
http://www.programmaster.org/PM/PM.nsf/UpcomingSymposia/FB25547962C8AD8785257E56006AC296

More details about the symposium:
This symposium will provide a forum to identify current achievements and existing challenges in computational design of ceramic materials. Computational techniques ranging from first principles to continuum modeling to study ceramic materials of all compositions, either in crystalline or amorphous state, will be considered. Presentations that address which challenges the unique structure and bonding in ceramic materials pose in theoretical modeling are especially welcome.

Topics include, but are not limited to:

• First principles study of the structure and properties of ceramic materials
• Molecular dynamics study of the structure and properties of ceramic materials
• Monte Carlo study of the structure and properties of ceramic materials
• Mesoscale modeling of the structure and properties of ceramic materials
• Continuum modeling of ceramic materials
• Breakthroughs in computational methods for ceramic materials
