MWK: Performance-oriented funding of the academic mid-level faculty for research groups at HAW: Multiscale and multiphysics material simulation through the use of high-performance computers

Within the framework of the research projects carried out over the last 15 years, pioneering and groundbreaking results and dimensions of material simulation have been achieved in the development of new materials and new microstructures, particularly in cellular media, as well as in multiscale and multiphysics material modelling, which promise far-reaching potential for further development in the future. For this reason, the young scientists applying for funding under the Mittelbauprogramm are to continue the fields of expertise established in the first funding phase: (i) electrochemistry and (ii) fluid-structure interaction and bring them into the following new large-scale projects and individual initiatives with a focus on thermal and electrical energy storage systems.
