MOTIVATION
Rapid advances in technology are giving us unprecedented views of an infinite Universe.

METHODOLOGY
VH-1: fluid dynamics * finite difference * forces and sources

SUBJECT MATTER
We use computers to simulate the flow of gas as stars are born, interact, and die, as galaxies are formed and merged, as jets are formed in new-born stars, dying stars, blackholes and active galaxies...

Notice:

  • Trend from 2D to 3D to multi-scale, multi-physics
  • Student involvement
