Aufgabengebiete
- Institut für Visual Computing
- Visual Computing in der Theoretischen Chemie
- Projekt FLOW: Newtonsche molekulare Modellierung. Um zuverlässige und akkurate Kräftefelder zu generieren, muss eine große Menge von Molekülen analysiert werden. Diese großen Datenmengen werden mithilfe des hochauflösenden HORNET Displays visualisiert und analysiert.

Forschungsprojekte
Die bio-chemische Forschung ist zunehmend auf akkurate Computermodellierung und -analyse angewiesen. Dieses Forschungsfeld ist naturgemäß hoch interdisziplinär, da physikalische Grundgesetze algorithmisch umgesetzt werden müssen, um in Anwendungen der Lebenswissenschaften relevante Beiträge liefern zu können. Das Projekt und die damit verbundene Initiative UMMBAS bündelt disziplinübergreifend die starke Expertise an der H-BRS in der Methodenentwicklung, der Visualisierung und der Anwendung computergestützter Verfahren zur Entschlüsselung materialwissenschaftlicher und biochemischer Fragestellungen.
