"Simulation Science: The Modeling of Real-World Problems" 
September 17 
3:05pm in LCB 225 
  
The solution of real-world computational science and engineering
problems requires a knowledge of the application domain, sufficient
mathematical sophistication to numerically model the problem through
simulation, a breadth of knowledge in high-performance computing
techniques to solve the simulation on available hardware, and a
familiarity with post-processing and visualization techniques for
making sense of the torrent of data produced by your
simulation. Simulation science is precisely this endeavor --- the
synergy of many different areas so as to solve large real-world
problems through computational simulation. In this talk, I will
discuss my efforts at accomplishing simulation science. Specifically,
I will discuss my work on the use of high-order numerical methods
combined with high-performance computing for solving problems in
computational fluid dynamics, computation mechanics and in
fluid-structure interaction.
