The talk will consist of two parts. In the first part, I | |
will present prior work aimed at developing new | |
algorithms for materials science applications. I | |
developed a novel numerical method to optimize the shape | |
of mechanical parts and maximize their strength. This | |
optimization problem was extremely challenging as it | |
involved changing the topology and therefore classical | |
optimization methods do not apply. A similar idea can be | |
applied to model shape memory alloys and plasticity in | |
metals. In this project, the optimization led to the | |
construction of a tree of laminated microstructures. | |
Constraints from mechanical equilibrium were used to | |
construct an adaptive tree and to determine the optimal | |
number of levels. | |
The second part involves more recent work. I will present | |
the implementation of a new heat flux algorithm to | |
understand failures in micro-devices in LAMMPS (Large- | |
scale Atomic/Molecular Massively Parallel Simulator); | |
LAMMPS is a high performance code which was benchmarked | |
on Blue Gene L with 90% parallel efficiency. Also I am | |
currently extending the capabilities of ParaDiS (Parallel | |
Dislocation Simulator), another high performance code | |
which has run on 135k processors of Blue Gene L. | |
