Abstract:
A method for specifying a multi-component composition, comprising:receiving, from a user system, a first limitation on a first physical property and a second limitation on a second physical property; determining a recommended composition by searching a first continuous surface relating the first physical property to at least two compositional variables to determine first compositions that satisfy the first limitation; searching a second continuous surface relating the second physical property to at least two compositional variables to determine second compositions that satisfy the second limitation; determining an intersection of the first compositions and the second compositions; and selecting the recommended composition from the intersection of the first compositions and the second compositions; predicting a value of the first physical property and a value of the second physical property for the recommended composition; and presenting, to the user system, the value of the first physical property and the value of the second physical property for the recommended composition.
