In this talk, I will present the multiscale and mulphysics models developed in my research group with a recent focus on energy storage materials and advanced structure materials. Our study of rechargeable lithium ion batteries for energy storage applications reveals a rich spectrum of electrochemically-induced mechanical degradation phenomena. The work involves a tight coupling between multiscale chemomechanical modeling and in situ nanobattery testing. Our study of nanostructured metals and alloys elucidates the effects of nanostructures on the size-dependent ultrahigh strengths and surface\/interface mediated deformation mechanisms. Finally, I will present my perspectives on the multiscale and multiphysics modeling that requires a synergistic integration of engineering physics and applied mathematics, in order to design the advanced structural and functional materials to realize their potential to the full.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EBio] \u003Cstrong\u003ETing Zhu\u003C\/strong\u003E is a professor and a Woodruff Faculty Fellow in the George W. Woodruff School of Mechanical Engineering at Georgia Institute of Technology. He also holds a joint appointment in the School of Materials Science and Engineering at Georgia Tech.
