Abstract: The invention relates to a system and method for indicating mechanical properties, and to a computer-readable storage medium, the system having a simulation unit which is designed to determine a cooling behavior of at least a part of a component to be produced, said component having amorphous properties, a computing unit which is designed to determine at least one amorphicity value at least for a part of the component to be produced, taking account of the determined cooling behavior, a prediction unit which is designed to indicate mechanical properties of the component to be produced, taking account of a geometry of the component to be produced, the at least one amorphicity value, at least one production parameter and/or a production method.

Abstract: Amorphous metals are a new class of materials in which advantageous physical properties can be achieved. Amorphous metals require rapid cooling in the injection-molding process, which is not achieved in the case of a large number of geometries. The invention relates to a method for adapting a component description of a workpiece to be produced with amorphous properties, which method comprises: —defining a cooling behaviour of at least a part of a workpiece to be produced, taking account of a component description of the workpiece; —adapting at least a part of the component description, taking account of the defined cooling behaviour of the workpiece.
