Introduction

Computational science is an area of science that uses advanced computing capabilities to understand and solve complex physical problems.

Profile

Computational Science is the research field devoted to the study of mathematical models, numerical methods and computational algorithms to understand and solve complex problems arising in applied sciences and engineering. With the aim of bringing theoretical developments and real-world applications together, Computational Science combines several disciplines such as numerical analysis, mathematical modeling and software implementation.

The research activities of the group include model order reduction of parametrized problems, numerical methods for partial differential equations, optimization and feedback control, uncertainty quantification, data assimilation and machine learning.

UN SDGs

In 2015, UN member states agreed to 17 global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure prosperity for all. This organisational unit’s work contributes to the following SDG(s):
