Micro to Macro! Materials Design Announces the Release of MedeA 3.8

Innovations in machine learning, materials informatics, microstructure construction tools, and the latest developments in density functional theory.

SAN DIEGO, Dec. 14, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Materials Design is delighted to announce the latest release of its world-leading materials simulation MedeA Environment. The MedeA 3.8 release features a wide range of enhancements: from machine learning and materials informatics to microstructure construction tools and the latest innovations in density functional theory.

Dr. Erich Wimmer, Chief Scientific Officer and Chairman of the Board at Materials Design, said of the new MedeA release:

"In the context of Materials Design's machine learning offering, MedeA 3.8 provides access to VASP 6.4.2, extensive access to VASP's machine-learning force field (MLFF) capabilities (which takes ab initio molecular dynamics calculations to the next level) together with many additional enhancements. We are particularly excited to announce the availability of the "Polymer Expert" de novo design module in MedeA 3.8."

MedeA Polymer Expert was developed in collaboration with Dr Jozef Bicerano, the author of the well-known P3C polymer property method. It allows you to find materials with desired properties in a repeat unit space containing well over one million entries. As integrated into the MedeA Environment, the Polymer Expert is extremely efficient and intuitive.

A list of major enhancements in the MedeA 3.8 release is provided at MedeA Software Release MedeA 3.8 -- Micro to Macro! (materialsdesign.com).

Dr. Wimmer added, "It has been a delight to see the development of MedeA over the years, and MedeA 3.8 is particularly satisfying to me. We have extended and enhanced many capabilities that Materials Design provides access to. These are cutting-edge methodologies developed by the world's leading researchers, empowering customers to achieve diverse objectives in materials science. We serve chemists, physicists, engineers, and materials scientists who are discovering bio-derivable polymers, improving batteries, optimizing processes and energy sources, and obtaining a host of materials insights along the way. Our customers consistently express their enthusiasm for the productivity the MedeA Environment offers and the scientific support the entire Materials Design team provides."
