Customer Satisfaction Survey 2024
Thermo-Calc has an immense contribution towards the study of materials. Its capability to predict the phase transformations and the resulting properties makes it easy to design alloys and heat treatment cost effectively.
Professor, South Africa
Customer Satisfaction Survey 2024
It is still the most actively developed CT (computational thermodynamics) software in the community, having some of the best alloy databases, the kinetic modules are easy to use, simple but capture good physics.
