Grant: Canada Research Chairs

The University of British Columbia

$200,000.00

Through Process Modelling of Advanced Structural Materials

FY 2023-24

Summary
Through Process Modelling of Advanced Structural Materials is central to the global Integrated Computational Materials Engineering (ICME) field. The research program seeks to replace lengthy, costly, trial-and-error-driven research and development in advanced manufacturing with digital simulation -- of materials properties, manufacturing processes, and responses to those processes. This evolution is key to accelerating the insertion of stronger, safer, lighter-weight materials into the transportation and natural resource transport sectors. Expected outcomes include increased oil transport security, improved vehicle safety, greater viability of alternative-fuel vehicles, reduced fossil fuel use, and reduced greenhouse gas production, all measurable contributions to a more sustainable planet.
