The Lastoskie Laboratory was recently awarded more that 900,000 service units and 500 GB of storage space on XSEDE’s high performance computing resources to complete work on a project entitled “Investigating electrode-electrolyte interface layers in Li-ion batteries using ReaxFF based molecular dynamics”.
The allocation of high-end computational resources, visualization, and storage by the XSEDE Resource Allocations Committee is done via a competitive process, designed in a similar fashion to the NSF peer review system.
The value of these resources is estimated to be more than $77,000 and represents a significant investment by the NSF in advance computing infrastructure for the U.S. open science research.
