Abstract

A brief overview of the role of computational materials science and engineering in the ARC Centre of Excellence for Design in Light Metals is presented. A recent example of designing precipitate structures in Al alloys for simultaneous increases in strength and elongation is used to highlight the spirit of the approach.
