Scientific Computing Research Environments for the Mathematical Sciences (SCREMS)

Virginia Polytechnic Institute And State University, Blacksburg VA

Investigators

Abstract

The Department of Mathematics at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University will purchase a computing environment which will be dedicated to the support of research by faculty and graduate students in mathematics, in particular the research group on `Modeling and Analysis of Fluids, Interfaces and Amorphous Polymers' (http://www.math.vt.edu/people/renardyy/maa.html). The equipment will be used for several projects which require the use of parallelized codes, including the following: `Formulation of moving contact lines for the volume-of- uid scheme,' by Michael Renardy, `Interfacial instabilities in viscoelastic flows,' by Yuriko Renardy, `Drop breakup in 3D,' by Jie Li, `Simulation of a liquid bridge bathed in a surfactant solution,' by Mary Ann Clarke.
