DOE requests for reviewers
by Wild, Stefan M. 02 Jun '18

02 Jun '18

All, In a recent review, it was apparent how much DOE (ASCR and otherwise) values service in the form of expert reviews. In the sprint to the end of the fiscal year, you might get sudden requests. Please treat these seriously; growing lists of conflict of interest result in program managers choosing subject matter experts with careful consideration. If you think you are conflicted or not able to respond within the requested period, do not hesito engage your division leadership. Stefan -----

visitor from CSIRO, Australia June 7-8, 2018
by Messina, Paul C. 01 Jun '18

01 Jun '18

Greetings, Mike Papka and I are hosting a seminar and visit by Dr. Sharen Cummins, CSIRO, Australia, on June 7 and 8. Sharen will present her seminar at 9:30 a.m. June 7 (title, abstract and short bio below) and will be at Argonne all of June 7 and most of June 8. We hope you will be able to attend her talk. In addition, she would like to meet with Argonne staff who have similar research interests, which are broad as you can see in the abstract and bio.. If you would like to meet with Dr. Cummins, please let Darlyn Lutes and she will work with you to find a time for the meeting. Please pass this on to anyone you know who might be interested in the seminar or in meeting with Sharen. Thanks, Paul and Mike Computing, Environment and Life Sciences Speaker: Sharen Cummins - Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) Host: Mike Papka and Paul Messina Date: Thursday, June 7, 2018 Time: 9:30-10:30 AM Location: Building 240, Conference Center rm: 1404-1405 Title: CSIRO Computational Modelling and Simulation Abstract: CSIRO, Australia’s national scientific industrial research laboratory, has had a rich and sustained history in computational modelling of complex industrial, environmental and biophysical processes. In this presentation an overview of CSIRO’s computational modelling capability will be given. The capability is primarily particle-based; Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) and Discrete Element Method (DEM) being the main numerical methods. However ever increasing commercial requirements to simulate complex multi-physics and multi-scale problems is driving a need to combine these particle based methods with grid based methods like FEM/FV and novel mesh-based algorithms. I will present progress towards our multi-scale and multi-physics modelling capability and discuss three driver applications - comminution, additive manufacturing and biomechanical modelling. I will also present CSIRO’s scientific workflow and application development framework called Workspace. Workspace is used to create licensed customised packages of our solvers for our industrial clients. It is also used across CSIRO to deliver in other scientific applications. Short Bio: Sharen Cummins is a senior research scientist in the Computational Modelling group at CSIRO. She completed her PhD at the Mathematics at Monash University in 2000, specialising in modelling incompressible flows using SPH. She then worked at Los Alamos National Laboratory as a post-doctoral associate and research scientist where she developed numerical algorithms and software to model granular and fluid flows, crystallisation and casting processes. In 2008 she joined the Computational Modelling group at CSIRO as a software and algorithm developer where her work supports the accurate, efficient and robust simulation of industrial, biological and geophysical applications. Her career interests are in the development of particle-based methods (SPH and DEM) and grid based methods (Finite Volume and Finite Element); in particular their coupling to model multiple physics and their efficient implementation in large commercial applications.
