Overview
The effectiveness of reduced order models is strictly dependent on the application. Therefore, a proper campaign of simulations is required to evaluate its feasibility in the context of large-scale weather simulations in the urban scale.
This Reduced Order Modeling of Fluid Dynamics in Large Scale Urban Domains (Internship) project from King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) bridges the fields of computational mathematics and aerospace engineering to evaluate the potential of reduced-order modeling in large-scale urban simulations.
Recommended Student Background
- Good knowledge in numerical linear algebra, numerical methods and CFD.
- Basic programming knowledge, ideally in Python, C/C++ .
- CAD modeling experience.
