Postdoctoral Researcher @ Max Planck Institute for Sustainable Materials
Yi Hu is a research scientist specializing in multiscale modeling of materials and mechanics, spanning atomistic simulations, discrete dislocation dynamics at the mesoscale, and continuum-scale crystal plasticity and phase-field modeling. His work integrates physics-based modeling with neural operators and machine learning to accelerate multiscale predictions. On the application side, he focuses on recycled alloys, linking microstructural evolution to macroscopic performance for sustainable materials design.
