Complex problems can only be addressed by sophisticated teams. HEMI members are globally recognized experts in the fundamental science of materials and structures under extreme conditions. We are dedicated to improving the human condition by working with government, industry and national institutions to develop science-based tools. We not only teach the world how to think about materials in extreme environments, but also design materials for extreme conditions.
Johns Hopkins serves as the lead research organization for the following entities, which are housed within HEMI:
MSEE URA
Materials Science in Extreme Environments University Research Alliance
The Materials Science in Extreme Environments University Research Alliance (MSEE URA) is a collaborative consortium dedicated to furthering the science needed to mitigate the risks of weapons of mass destruction.
CAIMEE
Center on Artificial Intelligence for Materials in Extreme Environments
The Center on Artificial Intelligence for Materials in Extreme Environments (CAIMEE) encompasses multiple cutting-edge research efforts designed to accelerate and streamline the design and discovery of materials for use in extreme environments.
JAM2
Johns Hopkins Center for Additive Manufacturing and Architected Materials
The Johns Hopkins Center for Additive Manufacturing and Architected Materials (JAM2) brings together faculty, staff, students, and post-docs from across Johns Hopkins to conduct cross-cutting research in design, manufacturing, characterization and applications of additive manufacturing and architected materials.
CISMMS
Center for Integrated Structure-Material Modeling & Simulation
The Center for Integrated Structure-Material Modeling & Simulation (CISMMS) creates a collaborative, multidisciplinary research and educational program to foster foundational advances in computational modeling, simulation and design in the fields of Integrated Computational Materials Science and Engineering (ICMSE), Multi-Scale Analysis (MSA), and Computational Structure-Material Analysis and Design (CSMAD).
Additionally, HEMI Fellows serve as integral participants in other centers and institutes both inside and outside of JHU. Below is a non-comprehensive list.
