We illustrate our approach with the system CaO/MgO where our techniques take full account of local structural distortion and clustering due to the large mismatch between the sizes of the two cations. All the characteristic features of the MgO/CaO phase diagram, including the eutectic point and the regions of liquidsolid coexistence, are reproduced.
