- Title of project: THEORETICAL AND COMPUTATIONAL MECHANICS AND/OR HEAT TRANSFER
- Funding agency (Optional):
- Description: Ability to predict materials
properties from their chemical composition and microstructure enables
discovery of new phenomena and new mechanisms, leading to new theories
and new approaches to manipulate mechanical and/or thermal transport
behavior. The research in the Atomistic and Multiscale Mechanics Lab
aims (1) to develop new theoretical and computational tools for
multiscale materials modeling and (2) to predict the properties of new
materials using atomistic or multiscale simulation tools.
- Restrictions/Constraints:
- Knowledge and skills needed: A strong background in mathematics.
- How to apply: Send CV with coursework and a description of research interest to Dr. Chen
