The nuclear Thomas-Fermi model which is based on nuclear matter calculations has been successfully applied to the study of the bulk properties of nuclei. It is ideally suited for extrapolation into the region of very neutron-rich and of superheavy nuclei. It is therefore a valuable approach for r-process calculations as well as for the study of neutron star matter at subnuclear densities.
