SUMMARY:Testing and Code Review Practices in Research Software Development Webinar
DESCRIPTION: MICDE’s Center for Scientific Software Infrastructure encourages you to check out this webinar! \nThis webinar is part of the HPC Best Practices webinar series. This series address issues faced by developers of computational science and engineering (CSE) software on high-performance computers  (HPC). \nSoftware quality in a research context is essential because research software is used in mission-critical situations\, decision making\, and computation of evidence for research publications. This webinar will cover the use of two software quality practices in the development of research software: software testing and peer code review. These practices in software development can lead to both improved scientific results through higher quality software in the short term and more maintainable software in the long term. While these practices are essential for any type of software\, developers of research software typically do not use peer code review and software testing as frequently as they could for maximum impact. \nThe presenter\, California Polytechnic State University Assistant Professor Nasir Eisty\, will discuss the motivation\, challenges\, barriers\, and necessary improvements to make the practices effective for research software development\, based on studies of the research software community conducted via interviews\, surveys\, workshops\, and tutorials. \nParticipation is free and open to the public\, however registration is required for each event. This series is designed for HPC software developers who are seeking help in increasing their team’s productivity\, as well as facility staff who interact extensively with users. \nThese webinars have been organized by the IDEAS project in collaboration with the DOE/ASCR computing facilities (ALCF\, NERSC\, and OLCF)\, and the Exascale Computing Project (ECP).

SUMMARY:Student Hackathon: creating a hybrid simulation system using the Simple Run Time Infrastructure Software
DESCRIPTION:The hackathon’s goal is to introduce the Simple Run-Time Infrastructure software toolkit (SRTI) to the participants\, and provide a template project consisting of multiple simulators\, each with a specialized purpose\, relating to a natural-disaster scenario. \nThis is a free event and all students from any school/institution are welcome. You need basic coding skills to participate. \nThe first\, second and third place winners will received monetary prizes of $1000\, $600 and $400. \nThe hacakthon is part of the 2020 MICDE Symposium and is sponsored by MICDE and the Civil and Environmental Engineering department. \nFor more information https://live-umor-micde.pantheonsite.io/symposium20/

SUMMARY:MICDE / Mechanical Engineering Seminar: Sophia Haussener\, Associate Professor\, Laboratory of Renewable Energy Science and Engineering\, EPFL\, Lausanne\, Switzerland
DESCRIPTION:View webinar recording. \nBio: Sophia Haussener is an Associate Professor heading the Laboratory of Renewable Energy Science and Engineering at the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL). Her current research is focused on providing design guidelines for thermal\, thermochemical\, and photoelectrochemical energy conversion reactors through multi-physics modelling. Her research interests include: thermal sciences\, fluid dynamics\, charge transfer\, electro-magnetism\, and thermo/electro/photochemistry in complex multi-phase media on multiple scales. She received her MSc (2007) and PhD (2010) in Mechanical Engineering from ETH Zurich. Between 2011 and 2012\, she was a postdoctoral researcher at the Joint Center of Artificial Photosynthesis (JCAP) and the Energy Environmental Technology Division of the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL). She has published over 70 articles in peer-reviewed journals and conference proceedings\, and 2 books. She has been awarded the ETH medal (2011)\, the Dimitris N. Chorafas Foundation award (2011)\, the ABB Forschungspreis (2012)\, the Prix Zonta (2015)\, the Global Change Award (2017)\, and the Viskanta Award (2019)\, and is a recipient of a Starting Grant of the Swiss National Science Foundation (2014). She is a deputy leader in the Swiss Competence Center for Energy Research (SCCER) on energy storage and acts as a Member of the Scientific Advisory Council of the Helmholtz Zentrum. \nModelling\, experimentation and scaling of photo-electrochemical fuel processing devices\nThe development of a sustainable energy economy based on renewable\, carbon-neutral energy is a necessary and urgent task. Photo-electrochemical approaches for solar fuels and materials are interesting\, provided they can be efficiently\, stably\, scalably\, and sustainably implemented. The functionality of such devices relies on complicated and coupled multi-physics processes\, occurring at multiple temporal and spatial scales. Device modelling can actively and efficiently support the choice of the most promising – in terms of efficiency\, cost\, robustness\, scalability\, and practicability – conceptual design pathways\, material choices\, and operating approaches. \nFirst\, I focus on cost competitive photo-electrochemical (PEC) devices identified through quasi-transient techno-economic modelling [1]. I will describe the conceptual idea of thermal integration in the context of PEC [2]\, provide results of maximum theoretical efficiency calculations to quantify the benefits\, and review the modelling framework that enabled the design of a feasible device [3]. I will illustrate how we have used our models to design and implement a PEC device with a solar-to-fuel efficiency of 17%\, and discuss ongoing approaches to scale up by our lab in order to bridge the gap between research and practical applications. \nSecond\, I will discuss detailed multi-dimensional mesoscale models that allow to assess the transport in complex (photo)electrodes. Specifically\, we use direct pore-level simulations for the coupled transport characterization of mesostructured (photo)electrodes utilizing nano-tomography techniques to obtain the exact mesostructure that is utilized in direct numerical simulations [4]. I will extend these investigations to ordered structures for the assessment of the transport in mesostructured electrodes for the electorchemical reduction of CO2 and discuss the effect of the mass transport on selectivity and activity [5]. I will then present possibilities to simplify these involved multi-dimensional numerical models into rapid screening models based on semi-analytical correlations. I will discuss analysis results for a large range of semiconductor materials [6\,7]. I will end with an outlook on research challenges and gaps in the field of (photo)electrochemical water and CO2 splitting. \n\nThis seminar is co-hosted by the Michigan Institute for Computational Discovery & Engineering\, and the Mechanical Engineering department within the University of Michigan College of Engineering. Dr. Haussener will be hosted by Rohini Bala Chandran\, Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineering. \nThe MICDE Fall 2020 and Winter 2021 Seminar Series is open to the general public. University of Michigan faculty and students interested in computational and data sciences are encouraged to attend.  \nQuestions? Email MICDE-events@umich.edu \n\nReferences: \n[1] M. Dumortier\, S.
