  Computational Engineering – Bridging the gap between the disciplines

  Technical developments are becoming increasingly complex and are based largely on mathematical principles. Engineers are thus dependent on efficient hardware and software and knowledge of the methods of computer science as a key competence. So they can successfully develop new products, compare technical solutions or predict the effects of design decisions. Computational Engineering (CE) was […]Technical developments are becoming increasingly complex and are based largely on mathematical principles.

  Computer simulation as a key technology

  Computer simulation is essential for success in international competition, because experiments are often too expensive, too slow, too dangerous, too expensive or even impossible. In modern research and development in science and industry, therefore modelling, simulation and visualization with the help of high performance computers has long been in use. FAU is the first to […]Computer simulation is essential for success in international competition, because experiments are often too expensive, too slow, too dangerous, too expensive or even impossible.
