Cooperation between IIT Delhi and FAU Erlangen : Large-scale simulation of particle-resolved flows

The Chair for System Simulation (LSS) is part of the project “Multi-scale Modeling, Simulation and Optimization for Energy, Advanced Materials and Manufacturing” (MMSO), which aims at a closer collaboration of researchers at Friedrich-Alexander Universität (FAU) and the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi (IITD).
Under the supervision of Professor Rüde, our colleague Christoph Schwarzmeier supports our Indian collaborators with the lattice-Boltzmann framework waLBerla for large-scale simulations of particle-resolved flows.
The fruits of the close cooperation and several research visits are published in numerous international journals and conference proceedings, which can be found in the following
