This grant provides support for the workshop entitled "Recent Advances in the Modeling and Simulation of the Mechanics of Nanoscale Materials," at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, August 21-23, 2019. Material models and simulations at different scales, encompassing quantum, atomistic or continuum descriptions, play a crucial role in the understanding and prediction of material behavior. However, their use for accelerated material discovery has not yet served its full potential due to the severe difficulties that still exist in achieving a truly predictive understanding of microstructure-property relations. This workshop aims at discussing the computational advances that will bring us closer to this goal, by revisiting the state-of-the-art and identifying the major challenges to be solved. For this, the meeting will gather experts at the forefront of modeling and simulation through the scales, including senior and junior participants. This grant will help support the travel and registration expenses of the youngest members of the scientific community.This three day workshop will be comprised of 11 sessions, organized by themes, including electronic structure calculations, atomistic modeling, continuum approaches for microstructure evolution and scale bridging techniques. The workshop will also feature a poster session where students and postdocs will be able to present their work. Finally, the meeting will include ample breaks in between sessions to foster discussions among the participants and help catalyze collaborations.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该赠款为题为“纳米级材料力学的建模和模拟的最新进展”提供了支持，在宾夕法尼亚州费城大学，2019年8月21日至23日，宾夕法尼亚州的宾夕法尼亚大学。量子，原子或连续描述在对物质行为的理解和预测中起着至关重要的作用。但是，由于在实现对微观结构 - 统治关系的真正预测性理解时仍然存在的严重困难，它们用于加速材料发现尚未充分发挥其潜力。该研讨会的目的是讨论通过重新审视最先进并确定要解决的主要挑战的计算进步，这将使我们更接近这一目标。为此，会议将通过包括高级和初级参与者在内的尺度来将专家聚集在建模和模拟的最前沿。该赠款将有助于支持科学界最年轻的成员的旅行和注册费用。这三天的研讨会由主题组织的11个会议组成，包括电子结构计算，原子建模，用于微观结构的连续性方法，用于微观结构和规模桥梁桥梁。技术。该研讨会还将举办海报会议，学生和博士后将能够介绍他们的作品。 最后，会议将包括在会议之间充分休息以促进参与者之间的讨论并帮助催化合作。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子和更广泛影响的评估评估标准来通过评估来获得支持的。
