Research Using Supercomputers Aims to Understand Aviation Turbulence


Mar 31, 2020

While turbulence like this is common, there is still relatively little known about how to accurately predict and monitor it. Using high performance computing, however, Katelyn Barber, a former Blue Waters Graduate Fellow from the University of North Dakota, is working to make turbulence prediction more accurate, which could have implications for improved air travel in the future.

Following the lizard lung labyrinth


Dec 13, 2019

In their latest study, biologists have discovered that Savannah monitor lizards have lung structures that are a kind of a hybrid system of bird and mammal lungs. The researchers took CT scans of the entire lung labyrinth and used two different supercomputers to simulate airflow patterns at the highest resolution. The software used computational fluid dynamics similar to those used to forecast weather, calculating millions of equations every tenth of a second. The findings show that vertebrate lung evolution is complicated and we have yet to understand the full picture.
