SUMMARY:MICDE Seminar: Yuri Bazilevs\, School of Engineering\, Brown University
DESCRIPTION:Bio: Yuri Bazilevs is the E. Paul Sorensen Chair in the School of Engineering at Brown University. He was previously a Professor and Vice Chair in the Structural Engineering Department at the University of California\, San Diego. Yuri is the original developer of Isogeometric Analysis (IGA)\, a new computational methodology that aims to integrate engineering design (CAD) and simulation (FEM). For his research contributions Yuri received a number of awards and honors\, including the 2018 ASCE Walter L. Huber Research Prize. He is included in the 2014-2018 lists of Highly Cited Researchers\, both in the Engineering and Computer Science categories. \nISOGEOMETRIC METHODS FOR SOLIDS\, STRUCTURES\, AND FLUID-STRUCTURE INTERACTION: FROM EARLY RESULTS TO RECENT DEVELOPMENTS\nThis presentation is focused on Isogeometric Analysis (IGA) with applications to solids and structures\, starting with early developments and results\, and transitioning to more recent work. Novel IGA-based thin-shell formulations are discussed\, and applications to progressive damage modeling in composite laminates due to low-velocity impact and their residual-strength prediction are shown. Fluid–structure interaction (FSI) employing IGA is also discussed\, and a novel framework for air-blast-structure interaction (ABSI) based on an immersed approach coupling IGA and RKPM-based Meshfree methods is presented and verified on a set of challenging examples. The presentation is infused with examples that highlight effective uses of IGA in advanced engineering applications. \nProf. Bazilevs is being hosted by Prof. Garikipati (Mechanical Engineering). If you would like to meet him during his visit please send an email to micde-events@umich.edu. If you are an MICDE or ME student and would like to join Prof. Bazilevs for lunch please RVSP here by Wednesday\, January 9.

SUMMARY:SC2 Alumni Seminar Series: Eric Harper\, NRC Research Associate\, AFRL
DESCRIPTION:Bio: Dr. Eric Harper is a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Air Force Research Laboratories (AFRL) at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base (WPAFB) in Dayton\, Ohio as part of the Air Force Science and Technology Fellowship Program (STFP). He is a member of the Optical Theory Group (OTG)\, simulating optical metamaterials to optimize their design using scientific computing techniques. He earned his B.S. in Chemical Engineering at the University of Dayton (2011) and his M.S. (2014) and Ph.D. at the University of Michigan (2017). \nMachine Accelerated Nano-targeted Inhomogenous Structures\nThe ability for nanoscale materials to control the propagation of light is well-known\, both in biological systems and synthetic applications. However\, the possible “solution-space” to search for nanoscale designs is near-infinite\, requiring advanced computational techniques to optimize structures for targeted device performance. Here we consider a subset of the infinite design space\, a simple bilayer structure of nanocylinders\, to demonstrate the capabilities of machine learning to accelerate the design process. We compare the performance of human-driven optimization to a genetic algorithm based optimization routine. We also consider potential machine-learning tools to further accelerate the design of these structures. \nThe SC2 is holding a Meet the Speaker lunch at noon. If you would like to attend\, please RSVP here.

SUMMARY:SC2/MICDE Seminar: Eric Jankowski\, Materials Science and Engineering\, Boise State University
DESCRIPTION:Bio: Eric Jankowski is an assistant professor of Materials Science and Engineering at Boise State University. He earned his PhD in Chemical Engineering from the University of Michigan in 2012\, where he developed computational tools to study the self-assembly of nanoparticles. These tools leveraged graphics processors to accelerate computations and provided insight into systems of both theoretical and practical importance. Dr. Jankowski began focusing on renewable energy generation during his postdoctoral positions at the University of Colorado and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory. At these postdocs\, Dr. Jankowski applied techniques he developed during his thesis to understand factors that determine the ordering of molecules in organic solar cells. \nThis is a joint seminar of the Scientific Computing Student Club and MICDE\, sponsored in part by U-M Rackham Graduate School.   \n  \nCobbling together computational components to engineer inexpensive plastic solar panels\nIn order to meet projected global energy demands over the next 25 years\, the equivalent of building a 1GW power plant each day is needed. Existing clean power generation technologies can meet this demand in principle\, but their relatively large short-term costs have limited widespread adoption. In this work we explain manufacturing strategies for organic (plastic) solar panels that overcome economic barriers to adoption by optimizing the structure of the organic active layer responsible for generating electricity. We perform coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations accelerated with graphics processing units to determine the thermodynamically stable morphologies for a variety of candidate ingredients. Using these morphologies we perform kinetic Monte Carlo charge transport simulations to determine which morphologies are better candidates for solar devices. The simulation pipeline developed here combines computational tools developed for solving unrelated problems\, and we discuss the evolving landscape of scientific computing education and how it overlaps with this work. \n
