In plain English
Los Alamos National Laboratory is offering the SCACS Toolkit, an AI-driven software platform that connects atomic-scale material simulations with engineering-scale finite-element models. It predicts localized, direction-dependent thermal and electrical conductivity for large material systems and is available to companies through exclusive or non-exclusive licensing agreements. This is a technology licensing opportunity, not a request for outside development services.
About this bid
Engineers designing semiconductors, fusion reactors, spacecraft and advanced electronics need to know how heat and electricity will move through materials, at every microscopic location where a defect, grain boundary or interface could trigger failure. SCACS, developed by scientists at Los Alamos National Laboratory, delivers that insight by connecting two worlds that have long been disconnected: the atomic-scale physics that governs true material behavior and the continuum-scale engineering models used to design real devices. Built on novel atomic-site-projected conductivity methods and accelerated through graph neural networks, SCACS predicts spatially varying, direction-dependent thermal…
