Materials science
Materials science simulations face formidable challenges with respect to the extreme heterogeneity of the systems to be simulated, as well as the data, complexity and dynamics. Work focuses on pushing the limits of state of the art methods in terms of scalability, improving the numerical complexity and supporting the portability of high-performance codes between different computer architectures. Communities in the field materials science will find support by three Simulation and Data Labs. JSC hosts one research group in this field.
