This National Science Foundation (NSF) Integrative Activities Program grant in the amount of $100,553 awarded to the University of Delaware supports the development of multiscale simulation methods for fluctuating hydrodynamics in soft interface-dominated materials. The project aims to enable investigations of thermal fluctuations in multicomponent fluids with complex interfaces by implementing heterogeneous particle-fluid interactions within the fluctuating lattice Boltzmann method. The PI and a graduate student will collaborate with staff scientists at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory's Center for Computational Sciences and Engineering to advance fluctuating hydrodynamics approaches and code frameworks. This work will leverage the National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center's supercomputing resources. The enhanced computational capabilities and long-term partnership with LBNL are expected to catalyze new directions for studies of fluctuating hydrodynamics in complex fluids and soft interface-dominated materials, benefiting both research and education at the University of Delaware.
