Some scientists have recently studied perovskites because of their material properties that can be used in things such as solar cells. A team of researchers from Ames National Laboratory and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zürich – along with a talented undergraduate – used the powerful HPC resource at the San Diego Supercomputer Center for their study.
Engineering scholars from Johns Hopkins University used Expanse at the San Diego Supercomputer Center at UC San Diego to create simulations to model the friction between two rough surfaces coated with fatty acids.
A team of computational chemists from Carnegie Mellon University ran simulations on an Anton 2 supercomputer and the Bridges-2 system at PSC to reveal insights about a protein that plays a role in epileptic seizures.
With the help of Purdue’s Anvil supercomputer, Yale researchers are trying to find ways to improve lithium batteries.
University of Kansas researchers who study a rare form of Alzheimer’s disease used Expanse at the San Diego Supercomputer Center at UC San Diego to conduct studies on how mutations of a critical protein enzyme could be treated to better control thought, language and memory.
MIT researchers use San Diego Supercomputer Center’s Expanse to explore the luminescent properties of iridium-centered phosphors
