PhD in Mechanical Engineering - Multi Scale Computation in Ann Arbor United States | University of Michigan Ann Arbor

Computational mechanics focuses on creating innovative, computer-assisted techniques to forecast physical phenomena crucial for engineering applications. Utilizing the parallel computing cluster managed by Advanced Research Computing at U-M, we conduct extensive computational analyses. Our multi-scale approaches investigate diverse topics, from molecular processes behind soot formation in combustion to how microscopic defects influence large-scale material properties. These techniques aim to precisely and dependably predict the mechanical, electrical, and optical characteristics of materials and structures by building upon smaller-scale models. This work may incorporate quantum-mechanical computations or intricate substructure simulations.
