A methodology for multiple domain feature mapping by Lim, Seng San

“…Feature technology provides a high level representation that is capable of capturing more engineering information than conventional solid modeling techniques, such as boundary representation (Brep) and constructive solid geometry (CSG), which are commonly available in many computer-aided design (CAD) systems. The information tends to be domain specific and application dependent. …”

The thermodynamics of multicomponent high-entropy materials by Cantor, B

“…In fact, there are literally billions of multicomponent high-entropy single-phase solid-solution materials, with a wide range of exciting new properties, in most cases relatively straightforward to manufacture by conventional processing methods. There seems, however, to be an upper limit to these effects, so that, beyond about ten or twelve alloying components, the inevitable increase in chemical diversity prevents the configurational entropy of mixing from suppressing the increasingly strong chemical reactions between them. …”
