The aim of the overall project was research to formulate and solve multi-scale optimization problems for energy storage applications. More specifically, we formulated multi-scale models for optimizing the internal structure of nanoporous materials, with the goal of developing models for related energy applications associated with sustainable sources of energy. The applications include supercapacitors, hydrogen storage, catalytic beds, and filters. The optimization algorithms we have developed can be applied to general hierarchical design problems arising from complex systems.
