MulSimVis

The computer-supported investigation of physical/chemical processes (like combustion processes or structure-deformation) gain more importance in the area of modern product engineering and analysis of complex phenomena. So far those processes were examined separately or just loosely linked. A new technology will be developed within this project, which brings solutions for end-linked Fluid-Structure-Interactions and solutions for problems in the crude-oil deposit-simulations. For that purpose proper extension of simulation methods and new methods for interactive visual analysis will be researched and developed.

The market for Computational-Fluid-Dynamics (CFD) calculations has a growth rate of 20% yearly! The computer-supported simulation getting more and more attractive due to the shorter development-times and due to the fact, that prototype-development is getting more expensive. There are a lot of companies that are still not using simulation-software, because of the high license costs. The combination of an open-source solution with an interactive post-processing/visualization tool will lead to a more widely used and attractive product.
