Researchers from the Faculty of Engineering at The University of Hong Kong (HKU) have made a significant discovery regarding ...

Physicists at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) have simulated the spontaneous transition of turbulence at the edge of a fusion plasma to the ...

The idea that reality might be a kind of cosmic software has moved from late night dorm debates into serious physics journals ...

The effects of the radiation environment on the instruments of the XMM-Newton spacecraft were modeled with GEANT4 prior to launch by the European Space Agency in 1999. XMM-Newton carries the most ...

The best theory physicists have for the birth of the universe makes no sense. It goes like this: In the beginning—the very, if not quite veriest, beginning—there’s something called quantum foam. It’s ...

For generations “theory” and “experiment” were the twin drivers of scientific research. In the past few years, however, a new tool has come into its own: simulation. Computer simulations have ...

The introduction of full 3D-ICs will require a simultaneous analysis of various physical effects under different workloads, a step-function change that will add complexity at every step of the design ...

The partnership combines GPU-native physics simulation with cloud scalability, allowing engineers to run massive, high-fidelity simulations and generate the data needed to train Physics AI models.

Virtual reality Computational models put our understanding of the laws of physics to the test. But how much of the universe can we fit into a simulation? (Courtesy: iStock/agsandrew) As I write this, ...
