- Spatial and temporal multiscale, multiphysics modeling method development
- Modeling failure and fatigue in metals, composites, and multifunctional materials
- Coupled phase-field crystal plasticity modeling for heterogeneous materials
- Fatigue and failure modeling and damage sensing of engineering components
- Data-driven methods, Machine Learning and Uncertainty Quantification
- Synthetic microstructure builders, statistically equivalent RVEs
- Atomistic-continuum multiscale modeling of polymeric and metallic materials
- Novel computational model development
About CISMMS
Chartered in July 2013, The Center for Integrated Structure-Material Modeling & Simulation (CISMMS) creates a collaborative, multidisciplinary research and educational program to foster foundational advances in computational modeling, simulation and design in the fields of Integrated Computational Materials Science and Engineering (ICMSE) , Multi-Scale Analysis (MSA) and Computational Structure-Material Analysis and Design (CSMAD). CISMMS creates three dimensional and computerized models and simulations to study and improve the design of materials ranging from automobiles and air craft to biomaterials and electronics.
