Abstract
Emerging concepts and toolsets in Data science and Cyberinfrastructure can bestrong enablers for systematic mining and capture of Materials Knowledge needed toguide efficient and possibly autonomous explorations of the unimaginably largematerials and process design spaces, while synergistically leveraging all available
experimental and simulation data. Although tremendous progress has been made in
the development and validation of a wide range of simulation toolsets capturing themultiscale phenomena controlling the material properties and performance
characteristics of interest to advanced technologies, their systematic insertion into
the materials innovation efforts has encountered several hurdles. The ongoing
efforts in my research group are aimed at accelerating materials innovation throughthe development of (i) a new mathematical framework that allows a systematic andconsistent parametrization of the extremely large spaces in the representations of
the material hierarchical structure (spanning multiple length/structure scales) andgoverning physics across a broad range of materials classes and phenomena, (ii) a
new formalism that evaluates all available next steps in a given materials innovation
effort (i.e., various multiscale experiments and simulations) and rank-orders thembased on their likelihood to produce the desired knowledge (expressed as PSP
linkages), and (iii) novel higher-throughput experimental assays that are specificallydesigned to produce the critically needed fundamental materials data for calibrating
the numerous parameters typically present in multiscale materials models. I will
present and discuss ongoing research activities in my group.

Bio
Surya Kalidindi is a Regents Professor, and Rae S. and Frank H. Neely Chair
Professor in the Woodruff School of Mechanical Engineering at Georgia Institute ofTechnology, Georgia, USA with joint appointments in the School of Materials Scienceand Engineering as well as the School of Computational Science and Engineering.
Surya earned a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from Massachusetts Institute ofTechnology in 1992, and joined the Department of Materials Science andEngineering at Drexel University as an Assistant Professor. After twenty years atDrexel University, Surya moved into his current position at Georgia Tech. Surya’s
research efforts have made seminal contributions to the fields of crystal plasticity,microstructure design, and materials informatics. Surya has been elected a Fellow ofASM International, TMS, and ASME. In 2016, he and his group members have been
awarded the top prize as well as one of the runner-up prizes in the nationalMaterials Science and Engineering Data Challenge sponsored by the Air Force
Research Lab in partnership with the National Institute of Standards and Technology
and the U.S. National Science Foundation. He has also been awarded the Alexandervon Humboldt Research Award, the Vannever Bush Faculty Fellow, the Governmentof India’s Vajra Faculty Award, and the Khan International Award.
