Entelea has a wide experience on different modelling and simulation methods across different length and time scales to i) capture and model the complex behaviour of materials, and ii) empower the design of novel materials with the best properties for new or existing products and systems. Our experts work with our customers to support their R&D activities through a suitable simulation strategy. Entelea makes use of a bottom-up approach to model and simulate the behaviour/performance of different classes of materials (metals and alloys, inorganic, organic and polymeric composites). This approach offers a deep understanding of mechanisms and structure-property relationships to support the synergy of molecular simulation with the design of experiments (DOE). The integration of materials modelling and digitalisation towards the development of innovative materials focusing on the sustainability of industry is Entelea’s primary goal. This goal complements our passion of using our advanced materials simulation methods and tools for solving real-life industrial problems.
