Researchers have developed a computer simulation of asteroid collisions that initially sought to replicate model asteroid strikes performed in a laboratory. After verifying the accuracy of the ...

Using an extensive computer simulation of the climate, the global economy and the global energy system, researchers at Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) have been analyzing different ways of mitigating ...

Computational modeling and simulation of nanomaterials strongly complement physical experiments. They enable the prediction of characteristics and processes under conditions difficult to replicate or ...

Gravity may not be a fundamental force of nature, but a byproduct of the universe streamlining information like a cosmic computer. Reading time 3 minutes We have long taken it for granted that gravity ...

For the past several years, a team of University of California astrophysicists working at Los Alamos National Laboratory have been using a cluster of roughly 300 computer processors to model some of ...

A milestone report proposes a new technique for modeling molecular life with computers. The advance promises new insights into the fundamental biology of a cell, as well as faster and more precise ...

“A sun of our own and it’s made in Britain!” crowed the headline. The UK Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA) believed its 120-ton experimental reactor Zeta was almost certainly generating neutrons from ...

National and international health authorities have brought to the world’s attention the need to mitigate threats to mental health posed by the COVID-19 pandemic and the economic crises that ensued in ...

You may not know the name Felipe “HarvesteR” Falanghe, the creator and lead developer of the original Kerbal Space Program, but the success the popular space flight simulation game should be proof ...
