Strategies to tackle Materials Complexity

Understanding the structural and functional properties of advanced materials is a fundamental goal of science and engineering.
In recent years, digital strategies are showing unprecedented impact along this research direction, facilitating the understanding of structure-property relationships and fostering desirable tailored material designs.

In this talk, I will discuss the recent progress achieved by combining numerical simulations, optimization techniques, artificial intelligence, and additive manufacturing methods to study diverse systems, ranging from glasses up to novel mechanical metamaterials.
