Hamish L. FraserOhio Regents Eminent Scholar & Professor
Department of Materials Science & EngineeringThe Ohio State University
Center for the Accelerated Maturation of Materials
To establish a new approach to the development of high performance materials which provides for their accelerated maturation into components
CAMM
High Performance Materials in the State’s Economy
Three Major Economic Strengths in Ohio Aerospace Automotive General manufacturing
Use of New and Optimized Materials Especially important in Aerospace and
Automotive
GM’s Aluminum body
Strengthening Ohio’s Economy Provide new technologies and tools to make Ohio’s companies
more competitive
Need for development of technologies that provide new and improved materials at low cost and in short development cycles

Development vs. Use of Materials R&D Tools Development:
Need to develop computationally-intensive simulation tools Ab-initio physics-based models, phase field modeling and finite element
modeling Use of high performance computing facilities - e.g., OSC
Use: Need to access simulation tools on a desktop PC
Need to access characterization and testing tools for calibration of simulation tools for new materials systems/types
Develop novel experimental techniques for: Rapid population of databases for development of neural networks for new
materials Multi-scale materials characterization, from nano- to macro-scale, to supply
mechanisms required for models
CAMM
Requirements for Access by Industry
Need to access simulation tools on a desktop PC Use of computationally-intensive models to calibrate neural networks
Examples: New scanning electron microscopes with required
performance - $450k State-of-the-art transmission electron microscope - $4M.
Need to access characterization and testing tools for calibration of simulation tools for new materials systems/types
Major problem: Cost of equipment is out of reach for most companies - both
legacy industries and new start-up ventures
Location asymmetry: CAMM has the equipment, industry doesn’t
Largely Result of Action and Investment Funds
CAMM has acquired a world-class set of equipment for materials characterization
CAMM
Example of State of the Art Acquisition by CAMM
CAMM has already ordered this microscope!
CAMM
Solution: Remote Access using Third Frontier Network Provide remote access to equipment - and so full advantage of CAMM’s
computational R&D tools may be realized Speed of the network permits this to occur in real time - essential for
efficient use of the equipment
Provide this access to industry, national laboratories (e.g., AFRL and NASA Glenn), and other universities
Initial start-up of concept through Regent’s Initiative VIM (Visualization, Instrumentation and Modeling)
