The Scientific computation group
In the Scientific Computation group we apply advanced modelling techniques and numerical algorithms to represent and solve complex, real-world problems in industry and nature, with an emphasis on overall performance and efficient scaling when deployed on massively parallel architectures. We collaborate broadly across the University and beyond, with many successful multi-disciplinary projects spanning mechanical engineering to microbiology.
