The Multiscale Simulation Application Suite

This Phase I SBIR project will develop a generalized multiscale modeling environment to allow the easy integration and use of multiple analysis codes needed for multiscale modeling. Multiscale modeling is a growing numerical analysis technique that is critical to solving some of the fundamental problems in micro-electronics, bio-technology, and nano-technology. Current technologies do not address the unique requirements of multiscale modeling, making the software difficult to apply to these important problems. These developments will build off of an existing set of software components designed for the integration of computer-aided design and computer-aided engineering, as well as a highly customizable rapid application development environment. These tools will be enhanced with capabilities specific to the pre- and post-processing of multiscale analyses as well as the core technologies to enable the integration of analysis codes interacting at multiple scales.
