  What is material informatics? Materials informatics deals with the intersection between materials science and artificial intelligence particularly focusing on developing new materials, predicting the functional properties, and optimizing the composition for accelerated innovation and product development. Materials are like human beings possessing very distinct characteristics/ features generated from their inherent structural attributes and fabrication conditions. Therefore, the performance and functional attributes of the materials such as mechanical performances, chemical behaviour, thermal, and thermo-mechanical properties are difficult to forecast and require long-term experimental approaches. This conventional mode of the experimental approach is costly as well as time-consuming. Moreover, the process requires experience/expertise in performance evaluation/ characterization. In this regard, the material informatics creates a platform to accelerate this process with the help ...

  What is industry 4.0?  Several breakthroughs and revolutions that are significant for industrial development in the current state of global competitiveness have resulted from the evolving industrial environment. These innovations are built on cutting-edge developing technologies to offer the next level of efficiency in the manufacturing, service, and construction sectors, and they may also have an impact on the overall business system. In the same way, Industry 4.0 refers to the present industrial revolution that is built on these technical advancements. Industry 4.0 is currently the topic of a lot of discussion among big companies, entrepreneurs, academics, and think tanks around the world.  Digitalization must permeate the entire industrial setup in order to enable excellent manufacture to timely delivery with trustworthy items in the market. The Internet of Things (IoT), robotics, additive manufacturing, artificial intelligence (AI), block-chain, drones, and other mo...
