Numerical Simulations
“Computation has become a ‘third branch’ of science, alongside theory
and experiment."
This statement has now been broadly accepted.
Fundamental scientific discoveries have been made with the help
of computational methods and, undoubtedly, more are to come.
The big challenging problems of our time, such as ....,
cannot be solved in a traditional way as they are too large, too
complex, depend on very many parameters, cover space and time domains
that are enormous or, in contrary, too small; study processes that are
dangerous and cannot be reproduced in a lab etc.
On the other side the computers offer a huge potential to be used to
simulate the problems of interest.
The knowledge and experience with computer simulations and the related
methods and programming techniques enable us to meet the challenges of
the important technical, biological, social etc problems we face on real
life.
