Asia CMD®Workshop 2018, Vietnam
Computational materials design (CMD®) is a computational approach aimed at developing new materials with specified properties and functionalities. The basic ingredient is the use of quantum simulations to solve the materials science problems in order to design a material that suits this specification. CMD® has proved its high potentiality to impact the real industrial research and development.
With the purpose of imparting the quantum simulations techniques, Asia CMD® Workshop (ACMD) has been organized in Vietnam from 2009 with the cooperation of Osaka University and universities in Vietnam for many times. In 2018, ACMD will be held at Thanh Tay Institute for Advanced Study – Thanh Tay University.
This workshop will provide lectures on cutting-edge researches in computational material design as well as hands-on practical training on quantum simulation. The lectures will also cover an overview of possible role of CMD ® in Vietnam, techniques of electronic structure calculations together with their applications to design new functional materials for catalysis, fuel cells, and batteries. And the software owners on the hands-on practical training courses will introduce several simulation packages, which provide efficient first-principles electronic calculation and molecular dynamics simulation.
