CMPD was founded by academic members from Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI), University of Connecticut (UConn), and the Research Foundation for the State University of New York on behalf of the University at Buffalo (RF), with ASM International, a non-profit materials science and engineering society. Lesley D. Frame PhD, Assistant Professor of Materials Science and Engineering at the Institute of Materials Science UConn, will act as the Center Director of CMPD. William Mahoney, Chief Executive Officer of ASM International, will act as the Business Administrator of CMPD.<\/p>\n
A consortium of key academic and industry organizations, CMPD is dedicated to the stewardship of materials data for modeling of material and process design via computational materials engineering. The cooperation of University and Industry Members alleviates burdens of materials data sourcing. These data sets are imperative to have, yet often transient and difficult to find, for use in accurate ICME models. CMPD solves the pitfalls of traditional consortia by utilizing ASM International\u2019s established practices of effectively aggregating, curating and disseminating data for researchers and corporations alike.<\/p>\n
Joining CMPD as an Industry Member will support the aspirations of the pilot project and future projects selected by the industry-driven Project Selection Committee. More importantly, your organization will have access to high-quality, pre-competitive data in volumes that normally exceed what one organization can generate alone. The data will be a product of the Center\u2019s shared expertise, collaborative quality assurance, and use of best practices for verifying and managing materials data needed for process modeling.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":59042,"template":"","class_list":["post-1924","video","type-video","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\n
