SUMMARY:MICDE Seminar: Mark Pauly Professor of Computer Science\, École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne
DESCRIPTION:WATCH THE RECORDING HERE. \nMark Pauly is a full professor at EPFL\, where he directs the Geometric Computing Laboratory (GCM). Prior to joining EPFL\, he was assistant professor at ETH Zurich\, postdoctoral scholar at Stanford University\, and doctoral student at ETH Zurich. He received the ETH medal for outstanding dissertation in 2003\, was awarded the Eurographics Young Researcher Award in 2006\, an ERC Starting Grant in 2010\, and the Eurographics Outstanding Technical Contributions Award in 2016. He is the co-founder of two EPFL spin-offs\, Faceshift AG and Rayform SA. \n  \nCOMPUTATIONAL INVERSE DESIGN OF DEPLOYABLE STRUCTURES \nResearch at the EPFL Geometric Computing Laboratory (GCM) aims at empowering creators. We develop efficient simulation and optimization algorithms to build computational design methodologies for advanced material systems and digital fabrication technology. Mathematical reasoning\, geometric abstractions\, and powerful numerical methods are key ingredients in our work.\nIn this talk I will show how these tools can be used to solve challenging inverse problems for deployable structures that can transition between multiple geometric states. Several design studies will highlight how the interplay of geometry\, computation\, and digital fabrication technologies facilitates the discovery of new material systems with superior functional performance. Such systems offer a wide variety of potential applications\, for example in industrial and consumer products\, soft robotics\, medical devices\, or architecture. \n\n  \nThe MICDE Winter 2023 Seminar Series is open to all. University of Michigan faculty and students interested in computationally designed advanced material systems and digital fabrication technology are encouraged to attend. \nThis seminar is hosted by the Michigan Institute for Computational Discovery & Engineering (MICDE). Prof. Pauly will be hosted by Prof. Evgueni Filipov\, Assistant Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering. \nGraduate Certificate in Computational Discovery and Engineering\, and MICDE fellows\, please use this form to record your attendance. \nQuestions?

SUMMARY:MICDE Seminar: Paul Kent\, PhD\, Distinguished Research Scientist at Oak Ridge National Laboratory
DESCRIPTION:Dr Kent`s research is focusing on predicting and explaining the properties of materials using computer simulation. Over the last two decades\, advances in simulation techniques coupled with increasing computer power have led to several methods that are able to predict physical properties of real materials to a useful accuracy. Moreover\, these methods use little or no experimental data\, making them especially valuable for the study of new materials and devices. Dr. Kent specializes in the application and development of these so-called “first principles” methods. \nHis research interests are broadly focused on atomistic materials simulation. His ongoing research projects include: \n\nQuantum Monte Carlo for real materials\nLarge length and timescale quantum molecular dynamics calculations\nCharacterization\, optimization\, and design of nanoscale systems with desired properties\nCombined density functional and many-body calculations of correlated electron systems such as the copper-oxide superconductors\nReactive classical molecular dynamics\nSimulation methods for exploitation of Exascale supercomputers and emergent architectures\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Kent is the director of  the Center for Predictive Simulation of Functional Materials. He also leads the  development of the QMCPACK application for exascale computing as part of the Exascale Computing Project. QMCPACK is a high-performance Quantum Monte Carlo code for computing the electronic structure of atoms\, molecules and solids\, including metals. QMCPACK is open source and available on GitHub. \nDr Kent is a member of the Nanotheory Institute at the Center for Nanophase Materials Sciences (CNMS) and the Computational Chemical and Materials Science group in the Computational Science and Engineering Division. He spent three years at NREL with Alex Zunger after completing his PhD with Richard Needs at the University of Cambridge. For several years he worked with Mark Jarrell at the University of Cincinnati on high-temperature cuprate superconductors. In 2009 he transitioned from JICS/UT Knoxville to ORNL. \nAwards: \n\nORNL Director’s Award for Outstanding Individual Accomplishment in Science and Technology\, 2020.\nAPS Fellowship\, nominated by the Division of Computational Physics\, 2017.\nACM Gordon Bell Prize\, 2008.\n\nProfessional Service: \n\nGrant reviewer for US DOE and NSF\nReviewer for APS\, ACS\, IOP\, Elsevier\, Springer Nature etc.\n\nAccurate Quantum Materials  Predictions on the Largest Supercomputers\nAdvances in the field of computational materials science have helped to predict\, understand\, and optimize the properties of many classes of materials. These include new battery electrodes\, catalysts\, and arguably even higher-temperature superconductors. However\, we still lack a widely usable method where all the key uncertainties and approximations in the predictions can be assessed and systematically reduced. This is critical where the approximations in established methods fail\, such as in quantum materials\, or simply where greater accuracy is desired. In this talk I will first describe our recent advances in Quantum Monte Carlo methods that promise to meet this challenge. Second\, I will describe the new algorithms and performance portable software design and development strategies we have adopted to run efficiently on the largest supercomputers powered by GPU accelerators from NVIDIA\, AMD and Intel. The lessons learned can be applied in any area of scientific software development. \n\nThe MICDE Winter 2023 Seminar Series is open to all. University of Michigan faculty and students interested in predicting and explaining the properties of materials using computer simulation are encouraged to attend. \nThis seminar is cohosted by the Michigan Institute for Computational Discovery & Engineering (MICDE) and the Department of Physics. Dr. Kent will be hosted by Dr. Emanuel Gull\, Associate Professor of Theoretical Condensed Matter Physics. \nThis is an in-person event. \nGraduate Certificate in Computational Discovery and Engineering\, and MICDE fellows\, please use this form to record your attendance. \nQuestions?
