Numerical Analysis & Scientific Computing

The direct numerical simulation of many scientific processes remains impractical, even with modern supercomputers. Many challenges arise from geometry (multi-scale, singular, unbounded, close-to-touching, etc), oscillatory solutions, and/or time-dependence. At CCM, we develop fast, accurate and robust high-order solvers for many of the equations of classical and modern physics, with application to fluid dynamics, geophysics, electromagnetics, acoustics, diffusion and transport, quantum mechanics, and plasma physics. This involves the free flow of ideas between analysis, algorithms, application details, and code development. We also release and maintain efficient and widely-used software libraries for fundamental tasks in scientific computing, signal processing, data analysis, and visualization.
