Il CSCS ha organizzato una serie di conferenze scientifiche intitolata “Supercompuer, strumenti della scienza moderna” nella quale rinomati scienziati illustrano la propria attività di ricerca svolta con l’ausilio dei supercomputer e spiegano perché la ricerca, oggi, non può più fare a meno del calcolo ad alta potenza. “Perché senza Grid-Computing non si sarebbe trovata la […]
Mountain forests in the Alps react very differently but noticeably to a warmer climate. Even if the target of limiting the Earth’s average temperature increase to 2 degrees were met, this would already prove too much of a challenge for some mountain forests. This is the result of computer simulations by researchers at ETH Zurich. […]
by Simone Ulmer, CSCS The Computational Science and Engineering Laboratory has a gallery (www.cse-lab.ethz.ch) of fascinating visualisations. Most of them have been made by you. Do you consider visualisation to be fun? Rossinelli: Everything started when I was an undergraduate student at ETH Zurich. During my master studies, I had my minor in computer graphics. After […]
The Computational Science & Engineering Laboratory (CSE Lab) of ETH Zurich lead by Professor Petros Koumoutsakos wins the Milton Van Dyke Award presented at the 65th Annual Conference of the Division of Fluid Dynamics of the American Physical Society, November 18-20, 2012, in San Diego, CA. This award highlights photographs and videos that illustrate both […]
Jean Favre (CSCS) presents at SC12 a video created together with Martin Schmitt and Christos E. Frouzakis ETH Zurich of direct numerical simulation of flow in engine-like geometries. Internal combustion engine flows are turbulent, unsteady and exhibit high cycle-to-cycle variations. There are multiple turbulence generating mechanisms and their effects overlap in time and space, creating […]
