The brief

Dstl is seeking a method that allows fundamental microstructural mechanisms, features and behaviours to be understood and applied at the macroscale in applied Finite Element Analyses (FEA).

This will increase confidence in traditional, deterministic, FEA predictions and, when applied within a Probabilistic Modelling (ProbMod) framework, will allow Dstl to rapidly assess new materials and microstructures to support decision making and streamline exploitation of materials S&T as well as support a "materials by design" approach.
