Materials Genome Initiative (MGI) aims to deliver the required infrastructure and training to accelerate discovery, developing, manufacturing, and deploying of advanced materials in a more expeditious and economical way. However, material by definition is a matter from which a thing can be made of. Ultimately speaking, it is not the material performance, but the structural performance or rather system performance we are after. Thus, materials genome must integrate with structural analysis to maximize the benefits of accelerated development of advanced structural materials.
Dr. Wenbin Yu is an Associate Professor in the School of Aeronautics and Astronautics at Purdue University. He received his PhD in aerospace engineering from Georgia Tech and MS in engineering mechanics from Tsinghua University, China. He serves as the Director for Composites Virtual Factory HUB and as the Associate Director for Composites Design and Manufacturing HUB, and the CTO for AnalySwift LLC. His expertise is in micromechanics and structural mechanics with applications to composite/smart materials. He has developed several computer codes which are being used in government labs, universities, research institutes and companies. He is an ASME Fellow and AIAA Associate Fellow. He serves on the editorial boards of two international journals: The Scientific Pages of Aerospace Engineering and Mechanics and Advances in Aircraft and Spacecraft Science.
