Computation has become an essential part of scientific research. Yet numerous questions remain about the role of the research software engineer (RSE) in that research.
The ever-increasing volume of scientific data necessitates new approaches to compress the data enough to fit simulation and experiment user constraints in terms of storage space, I/O speed, memory size.
In a Computational Materials Science article, scientists descrive a model combining phase-field modeling and machine learning, which was used to assess the importance of five parameters for grain coarsening of a polycrystalline material.
In an ACS Energy Letters paper, the authors summarize feedback from invited speakers at the Nanomaterials and Sustainability Workshop that was held on May 4, 2023, as part of the annual Advanced Photon Source/Center for Nanoscale Materials Users Meeting.
In a Nature paper, scientists present results from ultrafast electron diffraction and microscopy analyses to investigate the dynamic behavior of a self-supporting antiferromagnetic film.
In an ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces paper, researchers report on a Ni foam-supported Pt catalyst with an Al2O3 overcoat applied by atomic layer deposition and applicable to hydrogenation.
