Materials Genome Initiative
Cyberdiscovery of Materials ‐ NSF
Accelerated Insertion of Materials ‐ DARPA
The Road to Competitive Advantage
• There is a persistent demand for improved materials to advance emerging technologies
• Current time to introduce new materials is much longer than that of design and prototyping
• Couples with manufacturing competitiveness
Common Themes
Concurrency of materials discovery, design, and product development
Basis of Materials Genome Initiative
From MGI White Paper
MGI
Both demand new science and technology development
Strands of Materials Genome/ICME
Discovery – Facilitated largely by targeted/guided combinatorial first principles and atomistics simulations to discover stable phases with required structure and physical/chemical/electrical properties. Screening methods are at a premium.
Development – Historically by empirical means; improvement is emphasized. Recent trend (last 10-15 years) is to combine simulation and experiments with materials synthesis and processing to accelerate insertion of new and improved materials. Very broad, early stages. Often arrives at metastable phases that are useful in applications.
Selection – Classical design scenario – compromise selection based on properties, e.g., Granta (Ashby) materials selector software. Relatively well-established. The way “designing” materials is currently taught in universities.
Development: Upscaling and Product/Design Integration
• DARPA AIM program (2001‐2004) –Accelerating the insertion of new and/or improved materials• D3D tools (ONR/DARPA, 2005‐2009)• Integrated Computational Materials Engineering (2007‐present)
Accelerating New Materials Discovery
• NSF Cyberinfrastructure (2003) and DMR Cyberdiscovery of Materials (2006)• DOE Computational Materials Science & Chemistry: Accelerating Discovery and Innovation through SBES ‐ 2010
Materials Genome Initiative ‐ 2011

Some Comments: Aerospace Alloys
• Microstructures that give rise to desired properties are composed of multiple multicomponent phases with interfaces.
• Structures are typically achieved through path-dependent, non-equilibrium processes.
• Interface effects on phase interactions are a weak point in modeling and simulation – necessitates multiscale modeling in many cases.
• Processing induces residual stresses, composition gradients, porosity, inclusions, segregation and coarsening, etc. that have strong effects.

Decision-Making in Materials Design
• Accelerated discovery, development and insertion of materials is a decision-making endeavor
• The aim is to increase the fraction of critical decisions informed by modeling and simulation
• Materials design/development is typically undertaken in the context of product development/enhancement – coupling with manufacturing is natural
• Computationally-assisted materials design and development involves decision support
• Decision support concerns reliability, probability, multi-objective optimization, uncertainty quantification and management
• A systems perspective is necessary

From G.B. Olson
Computational Modeling and Simulation; Materials Theory• Protocols for linking unit process models that consider
atomic/molecular structure to higher length and time scale modeling protocols.
• Methods for both homogenization and localization.• Identification of key levels of material hierarchy that control
target properties/responses and dominant mechanisms to steer investment in experimental effort.
• Schemes for deciding if new information (and cost) is necessary to add commensurate value to decision‐making.
• Balancing relative investment in experiments and model refinement based on utility to inform decisions in materials design and development.

Material-Specific Scale Considerations
• Nanostructured materials and devices –process-structure-function fully concurrent
• MEMs – some separation of scales and functions
• Aircraft gas turbine engine materials – huge range of scales Tertiary precipitates ~ 10-30 nm Secondary precipitates ~ 50-500 nm Primary precipitates ~1 m Grains ~ 3-30 m Inclusions and Large grains ~100-200 m
Statistical Methods and Uncertainty• Information management for a flexible modeling digital data
linked environment.• Probabilistic treatment of rare event (extreme value)
phenomena and treatment of anomalies.• Value of information metrics applied to coupling models with
decision‐making and models with experiments at critical length and time scales.
• Stochastic methods for uncertainty and V&V algorithms that couple experiments with simulations.
Informatics and Data Science – Beyond Databases & Datamining• Rapid, efficient protocols for estimating properties,
calibrated/validated with experiments and high fidelity models• Structure as the taxonomy for materials design and
development

Workforce Issues
• There is a shortage of human resources to realize MGI goals downstream.
• Students must have a broader systems perspective along with computational materials science and mechanics strengths.
• Just developing tools and methods won’t add enough value to the develop the workforce.
• New curricula and distributed collaboration is necessary that recognizes the interdisciplinary nature of materials design and development.
University Perspective
• Where are the technology gaps? Primary obstacles? They may differ substantially from usual gaps related to multiscale modeling, etc.
• How can we assist with workforce development via educational programs and formation of collaborative teams within the Innovation Infrastructure of the MGI?
