100-fold increase in speed of determining interface structure -Successful application of big data methodology-

Researchers at the University of Tokyo, Shin Kiyohara and Teruyasu Mizoguchi, have succeeded in determining the structure of an interface between two materials at a speed 100-fold faster than conventional methods. Interfaces are a kind of lattice defect inside materials, and they have significant effects on the material properties. This achievement was made possible by the application of big data methodologies to the field of natural resources surveying, kriging.
