Presentation Transcript

  1. A Bridge Between Science - Based Design and Synthesis of Hetero geneous F uncti o n a l M aterials Interfaces Emergent Multiphysics Functionality Functional Materials Evolution Multi-scale Heterogeneity and • Recent events: • Science Review: Document in Feb.; Chicago Review and response to reviewers, March; presentation to BES, July; Directors meeting, Aug.; final formal presentation to DOE / BES 25 Sept.  requirements for continuing support: • Strongly focus our Center on Science; simplify our technical scope • Simplify our organization and operational structure • Eliminate / reduce some activities • Sharpen our objectives – they will judge us on our progress to the goals we set. Modeling Simulation

  2. A Bridge Between Science - Based Design and Synthesis of Hetero geneous F uncti o n a l M aterials Interfaces Emergent Multiphysics Functionality Functional Materials Evolution Multi-scale Heterogeneity and • Next steps: • Review changes made; put them into operation • Decide on outstanding questions; set goals for the next two years • Lay strong foundation for a proposal for continuing work (draft by May of 2013) • Codify this at Advisory Board & All-Hands Mtg. Modeling Simulation

  3. HeteroFoaM • Organization*: • “integration • by design” • Interactions: • Thrust groups meet every month* (Center wide teleconference) • Graduate student group holds monthly seminars • Aug. 8 Directors mtg. • Oct. 31 All hands & Advisory Board meeting • Collaborations daily (all hours!); 10+ joint papers in print, many more planned • Design Concepts* • ( * ~ changes since review)

  4. A Bridge Between Science - Based Design and Synthesis of Hetero geneous F uncti o n a l M aterials Interfaces Emergent Multiphysics Functionality Functional Materials Evolution Multi-scale Heterogeneity and • Science focus: “must be unique to our Center. Knowledgeable person in field must be able to immediately tell if what they are doing relates to it and how their work fits into the theme.” Modeling Simulation (the science of) Multi-scale heterogeneity as a foundation for emergent multiphysics properties in functional material systems. “.. emergent properties are properties of a group that are not possible when any of the individual elements of that group act alone. Cities, the brain, ant colonies and complex chemical and material systems, for instance, all exhibit emergent properties that serve to illustrate the concept.”
