Field of Work
The group ‘Simulation of Large Systems’ focuses on challenges at the edge between numerical mathematics and computer sciences in order to enable large scale scientific computing applications on massively parallel systems. A special focus is on numerical software for complex simulation environments that allow to bring together different mathematical and software components to an large application involving, e.g., multiple physical effects such as flow, structural dynamics, chemical and biological processes, or simulation and optimization. Several members of Miriam Schulte’s group are core developers of the multi-physics coupling library preCICE. Applications range from classical fields such as fluid-structure (-acoustics) interactions over muscle and tumor simulation to coupling between subsurface flow and geothermal energy infrastructure planning.
