Researchers are advancing science and society, by building the mathematical and statistical foundations for advanced computing methods, developing new scalable algorithms, and advancing the architecture-algorithm-application nexus.

 

 

Featured Research

 

Acoustics scattering calculations allow the determination of the acoustics pressure on the ear drum, corresponding to different locations of sound and multiple frequencies. These acoustics transfer functions prove useful for designing and tuning hearing aid devices for hearing impaired individuals. The tuning is especially challening in the case of young children with whom a trial and error approach is not possible.

Computational Visualization Center

A cross disciplinary effort whose mission is to develop and improve the core technologies for comprehensive computational modeling, simulation, analysis, and visualization of natural and synthetic phenomena, and then utilize them as an integrated tool for rapid discovery.

Astriagraph

Computational Astronautical Sciences and Technologies

Solves problems in (a) astrodynamics, (b) space environment, (c) space propulsion, (d) satellite guidance, navigation, and control, and (e) spacecraft systems and design which require or substantially benefit from high performance computing and computational science capabilities.

Climate

Center for Predictive Engineering and Computational Science

A research center dedicated to the development and application of tools and techniques for making reliable computational predictions of complex systems.
