| Research Mission: |
Simulating natural phenomena—like molecular processes, slender object interaction, and nonlinear material behavior—accurately is challenging since the mathematical equations are difficult to handle and the solution quality is heavily dependent on properties of the underlying geometry.
We develop high fidelity algorithms for the efficient physically-accurate simulation of natural phenomena and technical procedures as well as for visual computing applications covering design and animation. Amongst others, the focus lies in the preservation of physical and geometric quantities.
That requires both fundamental and applied aspects on Computational Mathematics, leading to further open research questions in Symbolic and Numerical Algorithms and Mathematical Modeling. |
