Transforming Combustion Science and Technology with Exascale Simulations

ECP's Combustion-Pele project involves predictive simulation of in-cylinder combustion processes to explore the potential for groundbreaking efficiencies while limiting the formation of pollutants. Combustion-Pele's principal investigator, Jackie Chen, is guest on the Let's Talk Exascale podcast.

Getting Ready to Model Molecular Properties at Exascale with NWChemEx

Many of the phenomena in our daily lives are controlled by molecular processes. An example is the performance of automobile engines. Software called NWChem, or Northwest Chem, can tell researchers a lot about fuel combustion and many other molecular systems. Here about NWChemEx for exascale on Let's Talk Exascale.

New Exascale System for Earth Simulation

A new earth modeling system unveiled today will have weather-scale resolution and use advanced computers to simulate aspects of Earth’s variability and anticipate decadal changes that will critically impact the U.S. energy sector in coming years.

Harnessing the Power of Exascale for the Long-Term Design and Planning of Urban Systems

ECP's Multiscale Coupled Urban Systems project is applying computing technology and computer models to long-term design and planning issues that pertain to cities.
