High Performance Computing in Geosciences; Safety of Constructions with Respect to Rock Deformations and Movements

Objective

The objective of the project is to formulate and improve mathematical models for certain problems in geosciences and to develop numerical methods and software packages for these, which can be implemented efficiently on parallel computers.

The problems will be formulated in mathematical form as two- and three-dimensional partial differential equations as used in elasticity and plasticity. The models will be written in numerical form and implemented on high performance computers. The software so developed will be tested on real sized problems and the tests will be analysed and compared with in situ observations and experience to make further improvements to the models.

INFORMATION DISSEMINATION ACTIVITIES

Results of the project will be used by one industrial partner in designing new mine technologies, and by another in construction of highways, bridges and tunnels.

Fields of science (EuroSciVoc)

CORDIS classifies projects with EuroSciVoc, a multilingual taxonomy of fields of science, through a semi-automatic process based on NLP techniques. See: The European Science Vocabulary.

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.
