- This National Science Foundation Project Grant award of $564,286 provides funding from September 1, 2022 through August 31, 2025 to support research investigating two hypotheses for the generation of Earth's ancient magnetic field. Funded under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), the award will be used to conduct first-principles quantum-mechanical simulations to predict key material properties governing electron transport in silicate liquids and test whether a silicate dynamo hosted in...
- This two-year, $389,244 National Science Foundation project grant funds the development of numerical modeling to investigate thermo-chemical convection in Earth's core and implications for geomagnetic field evolution. Funded under the NSF Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), the modeling aims to better understand how Earth's magnetic field has been maintained over billions of years through fluid motion in its liquid outer core. The Carnegie Institution for Science will receive funding to support a...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a Project Grant of $372,159 to the University of New Hampshire (UNH) under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to conduct research on understanding the relationship between localized perturbations in the Earth's magnetic field and associated magnetospheric and ionospheric phenomena. The research aims to improve the ability to predict geomagnetically induced currents that can impact power grids and other critical infrastructure. The three-year...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $299,887 to the University of California, Berkeley from November 1, 2023 through October 31, 2025. The project aims to develop new reduced complexity models for simulating convection and magnetic field generation in the Earth's core. This use-inspired research will enable more reliable forecasting of changes in the Earth's magnetic field, which is critical for planning space missions due to the...
- This federal Project Grant award for $444,202, provided by the National Science Foundation's (CFDA 47.049) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program, supports research at the University of Utah to develop a novel mathematical and computational framework for dramatically accelerating the calibration and updating of digital twin models. Digital twins are virtual representations of physical systems that enable real-time simulation, monitoring, and prediction of their real-world counterparts,...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) provides $269,979 to the Santa Fe Institute of Science to conduct collaborative research on developing robust digital twin models that can accurately predict the behavior of complex systems under unexpected conditions. The key objectives are to: Investigate the generalization abilities of digital twins by combining mathematical tools from nonlinear dynamics and machine...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences Federal Grant Program (CFDA 47.049) provides $330,000.00 in funding to the University of Maryland, College Park to develop an autonomous experimental framework for materials discovery. The key products and services to be delivered under this award include strategies for building smart experimental systems that allow different scientific instruments - such as microscopes, structural...
- This $199,400 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) will fund collaborative research to augment continuous data assimilation and perform equation discovery with applications in geophysics. The research aims to develop more accurate predictive models for complex systems like weather, ocean currents, and groundwater flow by systematically adapting and modifying existing physically derived models using...
- This $888,680 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) will support collaborative research by the University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC) on developing digital twin models and data science techniques for studying neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and multiple sclerosis. The 3-year project aims to advance the theoretical foundations, methodological tools, and algorithmic principles of...
This $200,000 project grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) to the University of Maryland, College Park. The objective is to develop a "digital twin" system for a large-scale laboratory experiment that mimics conditions inside the Earth's core, in order to improve understanding of the geodynamo - the engine driving the Earth's magnetic field. Key products and services to be delivered include: This collaborative research project, conducted between the University of Maryland and the University of Illinois, aims to advance computational mathematics, support training for a new generation of scientists and engineers, and have potential benefits for diverse fields including medical device design and external aerodynamics.
