Computational Materials Design

The book is about computational materials desing. The reader can understand the outline of each theory and the effectiveness of computational approach in understandingnot only materials phenomena but also materials design and development. The book is directed to students, materials scientists and engineers who need a clear exposition of modern technologies for materials design.
