Scientific gallery

Computational methods are presented first, followed by their application areas. Examples cover computational acoustics, mechanics, fluid dynamics and multiphysics, together with energy and environmental analysis, cultural heritage and health. See Research themes for the scientific problems and methods behind this research programme, and Publications for a representative selection of research outputs.
