DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:ABSTRACT: This work seeks to enhance and modernize the field of ultra-high temperature composites development by providing industry and research a novel, rapid simulation technique that harnesses the massively parallel computing power of modern GPUs.=0A=0AThe development of cutting-edge materials systems for ultra-high temperature applications such as hypersonics and power generation requires the evaluation of an immensely large parameter space. At the microstructural level, this involves a complex interplay between chemical (e.g. elemental or alloy content) and physical (e.g. pore morphology and distribution) properties . Modelling represents one of the most cost-effective tools for rapidly optimizing of the processing and fabrication parameters required to achieve the desired results.=0A=0AA highly parallel micro-level thermal transport code has been developed in CUDA, which, to date, has achieved more than 100x increase in simulation speed. Co-simulation with the commercial FEA package Abaqus is envisaged, which will provide a coupled, macro-level structural analysis capability.
