How Do Computer Scientists Contribute to Nanoscale Simulations?
Nanoscale simulations are computational models that mimic the behavior of materials at the atomic and molecular levels. Computer scientists create simulation algorithms that can accurately predict how nanomaterials will interact with one another and their environment. These simulations require an immense amount of computational power, often utilizing high-performance computing (HPC) systems to handle the calculations. The insights gained from these simulations guide experimentalists in designing more effective nanoparticles and nanodevices.
