The NHERI SimCenter participated at the U.S. Association for Computational Mechanics (USACM) Uncertainty Quantification in Computational Solid and Structural Materials Modeling Workshop, held on January 17-18, 2019, at Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD.

Sanjay Govindjee, SimCenter’s principal investigator and co-director, presented information about the SimCenter in his talk entitled “NSF NHERI SimCenter at Berkeley: An Application Opportunity for UQ Researchers.”

Also, Fei Ding, a PhD student working with Professor Ahsan Kareem of the SimCenter leadership team, presented her poster, “Inflow and Model-Form Uncertainty Quantification in CFD Using Surrogate Models.”

The aim of the two-day thematic workshop was to bring together prominent scholars in solid and structural mechanics, materials science and applied mathematics with a shared interest in uncertainty quantification and computational material modeling to exhibit the state-of-the-art research, collectively identify existing and future challenges, and promote promising new ideas in the field.
