High Performance Beowulf Cluster for Computational Studies of Electrolytes for Energy Storage and Conversion
Abstract
The Defense University Research Instrumentation Program (DURIP) is designed to improve the capabilities of U.S. Universities to conduct research and to educate scientists and engineers in selected technical areas of importance to national defense. DURIP funding provides for the acquisition of research equipment and instrumentation for this purpose. This proposal is for the purchase of High-Performance Beowulf cluster. The P.I., Professor Paddison, of the University of Tennessee, Knoxville will use the equipment to augment and enhance research capabilities in the area of computational studies of selective transport of single lithium (Li+) and sodium (Na+) cations in crystalline polymers. The equipment will also be utilized to under take simulations of the structure and spectroscopic signatures of ionic liquid based electrolytes for magnesium (Mg2+) ion batteries.
