Investigation of a structural ceramics database (WebSCD) curated by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). 3-week project as part of the UC Berkeley Data Science workshop (DSW2018). WebSCD
~4000 material entries Matminer was used to generate features based on composition.
Most represented mechanical properties: Elastic modulus, flexural strength, fracture toughness.
Data distribution for properties of interest:
- Flexural strength
- Fracture toughness
- Elastic modulus
Random forest regression:
- Flexural strength
- Fracture toughness
- Elastic modulus
Important features:
- Flexural strength
- Fracture toughness
- Elastic modulus
