Research and Education in Advanced Computing (REACOM)

在美国国家科学基金会的支持下，克拉克亚特兰大大学将通过以下方式加强其科学、技术、工程和数学教育和研究基础设施：(1)开展计算力学、计算流体力学和数据挖掘领域的研究；（二）建立先进计算实验室；(3)修改计算机与信息科学与工程专业课程设置；(4)为学生提供先进计算机方面的研究机会和培训。研究部分具有显著的智力价值。其中一个研究项目涉及基于时空离散的计算算法的开发，该算法使用不连续伽辽金有限元法来解决计算力学中出现的移动边界和界面问题。第二个研究项目将利用纳米流体计算研究微通道冷却系统中的流体流动和传热，纳米流体显示出异常增强的导热性。第三个研究项目的目标是开发从地理空间领域的大型数据集学习知识库的进化技术。该项目的更广泛影响包括推进计算科学、工程和数据库管理的基础知识；加强机构研究能力；通过建立先进的计算机实验室和改进和修订课程，加强计算机和信息科学与工程的基础设施；并增加攻读科学、技术、工程和数学学科研究生的学生数量。

HRD- 0401679Research and Education in Advanced ComputingClark Atlanta UniversityPI: Sharouz AliabadiWith NSF support, Clark Atlanta University will strengthening its science, technology, engineering and mathematics educational and research infrastructure by (1) conducting research in the areas of computational mechanics, computational fluid mechanics, and data mining; (2) establishing an advanced computing laboratory; (3) revising the computer and information science and engineering curricula; and, (4) providing student research opportunities and training in advanced computing.The research component has significant intellectual merit. One of the research projects involves the development of computational algorithms based on space-time discretization using the discontinuous Galerkin finite element method for problems with moving boundaries and interfaces arising in computational mechanics. A second research project will computationally study the fluid flow and heat transfer in micro-channel cooling systems using nanofluids that show anomalously enhanced thermal conductivities. The objectives of a third research project are to develop evolutionary techniques for learning knowledge bases from large data sets in the geospatial domain.Broader impacts of the project include advancing fundamental knowledge incomputational science and engineering and database management; strengthening institutional research capacity; strengthening the infrastructure in computer and information science and engineering through the establishment of an advanced computing laboratory and curricula enhancements and revisions of courses; and increasing the pool of students who will pursue graduate studies in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics disciplines.
