Self-driving revolution hampered by a lack of accurate simulations of human behavior
Self-driving revolution hampered by a lack of accurate simulations of human behaviour.
Algorithms that accurately reflect the behaviour of road users -- vital for the safe roll out of…
Supercomputer simulations show ways to clean up, speed up gas turbines
These supercomputer-generated images depict how the placement of combustion inside or outside the jet, affects its…
This Is a Philosopher on Drugs
My undrugged mind, to borrow a witticism from J. L. Austin, delivers to me a world of “medium-sized dry goods” and little else. My drugged mind delivers to me spirits or djinni or angels or…
Evidence that Saturn’s moon Mimas is a stealth ocean world: Simulations suggest…
When a Southwest Research Institute scientist discovered surprising evidence that Saturn's smallest, innermost moon could generate the right amount of heat to support a liquid internal…
A method to enable robotic paper folding based on deep learning and physics…
Half valley robotic folding of an A4 sheet of paper with (a) intuitive manipulation and (b) our optimal manipulation.…
Synthetic populations and improved social simulations for guiding decision-making
This image indicates the possible workplaces of simulated workers who live in Takatsuki, Japan. With additional…
New approach to epidemic modeling could speed up pandemic simulations
Simulations that help determine how a large-scale pandemic will spread can take weeks or even months to run. A recent study in PLOS Computational Biology offers a new approach to epidemic…
Celeritas code will accelerate high energy physics simulations with supercomputers
Initially, Celeritas will accelerate simulation of data from the Compact Muon Solenoid detector (shown schematically)…
Simulations show weak electrical pulses could treat atrial and ventricular…
Atrial and ventricular fibrillations are dangerous heart arrhythmias that claim millions of lives each year. Current treatment for them is a high-energy defibrillation shock that can be…
