A Multiphysics Multiscale Approach to the Analysis of Complex Materials and Systems
| April 8, 2022 |
Abstract
Advances in robust, computationally efficient, scalable, and adaptive modeling and simulation capabilities to predict and develop novel materials with optimized performance are necessary to advance the state of R&D in aeronautics and other fields. The last decade has seen tremendous interest in developing concurrent and synergistic high-fidelity multiscale material models to accurately predict the full-scale component response. However, a significant challenge is bridging the temporospatial multi-physical behavior from the nano and micro scales to the meso- and macro scales while accounting for variabilities and manufacturing-induced flaws in the material system. This talk will provide an overview of our current research on multiphysics-based concurrent and synergistic multiscale modeling techniques for modeling advanced composites and multifunctional material systems.
