Modelling multiphase flows for sustainable manufacturing and thermal energy applications
In this case study, we hear from Faysal Khaleel and Fahad Al-Gburi (based in the School of Engineering), who have been utilising BEAR to study fluid dynamics problems in materials synthesis and heat transport applications. We are PhD students within Dr. Jason Stafford’s research group in the School of Engineering and co-supervised by Prof. Yulong … Continue reading “Modelling multiphase flows for sustainable manufacturing and thermal energy applications”
Outreach throughout the BEAR world
The Researcher Engagement and Data Group (REDG) within Advanced Research Computing now comprises of 3.3FTE posts and engages with researchers across the University, from postgraduate level to senior academics, to ensure that they are aware of all the advanced computing facilities available to them through the Birmingham Environment for Academic Research (BEAR). The group also … Continue reading “Outreach throughout the BEAR world”
Quantum chemical modelling of solids for optoelectronic applications
In this case study, we hear from Peter Russell (School of Chemistry), who has been utilising BlueBEAR to focus on the computational and theoretical modelling of novel solid-state materials. I am a first year PhD student in the Scanlon Materials Theory Group, based in the School of Chemistry. The group is focused on the computational … Continue reading “Quantum chemical modelling of solids for optoelectronic applications”
10,12,14 to infinity: quantum research is classically hard
In this case study, we hear from Jonathon Riddell (School of Physics), who has been utilising BlueBEAR to study strongly correlated quantum systems out of equilibrium. My name is Jonathon Riddell, I am a fellow of non-equilibrium physics, in the Theoretical Physics Group. I am working on several projects, all of them with heavy reliance … Continue reading “10,12,14 to infinity: quantum research is classically hard”
