NSF Grant Proposal funded: A Phase Field Arlequin Model for Resolving Nonlocal Hydromechanical Effects of Porous Media Across Time and Spatial Scales

The proposal #1462760 "A Phase Field Arlequin Model for Resolving Nonlocal Hydromechanical Effects of Porous Media Across Time and Spatial Scales" submitted to Mechanics of Material program of NSF has been awarded at the level of $300,000. The funding will support research and educational activities for a new type of computational poromechanics model that enables modeling of multi-physical events at different spatial and temporal scales. 

In additional to this single-PI proposal, the research group has also received support NSF from NSF proposal #1520732 and #1516300 in which Prof. Sun served as co-PI.
