This federal Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070), supports the development of a cloud-based, open-source multiscale modeling software called OpenMSG. The $162,022 award, effective from August 15, 2025 to July 31, 2028, aims to create a toolkit for efficient prediction of mechanical and multiphysics behaviors of highly heterogeneous materials and structures, such as advanced composites, metamaterials, soft materials, and architected materials. The project develops new multiscale models based on the Mechanics of Structure Genome (MSG) approach, which can discretize analysis domains using efficient beam and shell elements while accounting for material heterogeneity and anisotropy. The goal is to integrate this multiscale modeling theory with multi-fidelity machine learning models to provide open-access tools, curated datasets, and comprehensive training resources to advance materials science, enable efficient structural analysis and design, and support workforce development in ML-assisted material and structural modeling.
