| Description | The state-of-the-art ab initio electronic structure calculation methods in solids are briefly reviewed and their role in contemporary materials science is discussed. Their applications are illustrated on the following problems: (i) magnetism of iron and its changes during phase transformations, (ii) theoretical tensile strength of metals and intermetallics, (iii) generation of interatomic potentials for large-scale computer simulations of defect configurations, (iv) positron annihilation studies of nanocrystalline materials. |
