2012: Computational Material Science

Description

The 2012 SciVis Contest centers on computational material science, specifically atomic configurations. Contestants aim to create a visualization enabling exploration of phase transitions in a designated ferroelectric material as temperature decreases gradually. The ability to simulate phase transitions marked a significant recent breakthrough. Understanding the behaviour of materials undergoing transformation is pertinent not only to fundamental research but also to technological applications.
