NSF research grant awarded to work on multi-fidelity modeling using PeriDEM

A huge thank you to the National Science Foundation (NSF) for the ERI award (link)! The awarded amount is $200k over two years.

This project will focus on developing an Adaptive Multi-Fidelity Framework for Modeling Heterogeneous Materials Under Extreme Conditions. We will be pushing the boundaries of how we simulate granular media like sand and rocks under intense stress. The attached video shows a glimpse of our work with the PeriDEM model!

We are actively seeking enthusiastic undergraduate and graduate students interested in computational mechanics and applying advanced numerical and machine learning-based methods to problems in fracture mechanics, functional soft materials, and granular materials. Interested candidates should email me here!
