The University of Illinois, doing business as The Board of Trustees of the University of Illinois, received a $598,958 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) to develop a workflow using artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning techniques to predict the mechanical behavior, such as elasticity and strength, of two-dimensional materials formed by laterally interfacing atomically thin sheets. The research aims to overcome computational challenges in modeling these materials and accelerate the development of new two-dimensional materials for applications like flexible electronics and batteries. The project, titled "BRITE RELAUNCH: LEVERAGING ADVANCES IN ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE TO PREDICT MECHANICAL BEHAVIOR OF TWO-DIMENSIONAL ATOMIC SHEETS WITH DEFECTS," will run from Jan 1, 2025 to Dec 31, 2027. No subawards are planned for this award.
