LS-OPT is a stand­alone De­sign Op­ti­miza­tion and Prob­a­bilis­tic Analy­sis pack­age with an in­ter­face to LS-DY­NA. In the “con­ven­tion­al de­sign” ap­proach, a de­sign is im­proved by eval­u­at­ing its “re­sponse” and mak­ing de­sign changes based on ex­pe­ri­ence or in­tu­ition. This ap­proach does not al­ways lead to the de­sired re­sult, that of a ‘best’ de­sign, since the de­sign ob­jec­tives are of­ten in con­flict. It is there­fore not al­ways clear how to change the de­sign to achieve the best com­pro­mise of these ob­jec­tives. A sys­tem­at­ic ap­proach can be ob­tained by us­ing an in­verse process of first spec­i­fy­ing the cri­te­ria and then com­put­ing the ‘best’ de­sign ac­cord­ing to a for­mu­la­tion. The im­prove­ment pro­ce­dure that in­cor­po­rates de­sign cri­te­ria in­to a math­e­mat­i­cal frame­work is re­ferred to as...

BIOVIA COSMOtherm is the universal tool for predictive property calculation of liquids, and combines quantum chemistry and thermodynamics in a unique fashion. It calculates the chemical potential of almost any molecule in almost any pure or mixed liquid at variable temperature, i.e. it predicts how happy a molecule is in a certain liquid environment. This is the key for the prediction of a multitude of properties required in industrial applications or academic research, including solubility, partitioning, vapor pressure, and complete phase diagrams. BIOVIA COSMOtherm 2022 Tested Picture In contrast to several other available methods BIOVIA COSMOtherm is able to predict properties as function of concentration and temperature by applying thermodynamically consistent equations.
