The cluster of excellence represents a massive platform for further developing scientific methods and techniques in all branches of modelling and simulation techniques. Proceeding from the various simulation methods, future scenarios can be designed, which nowadays seam to be partly or completely visionary, which, however, can be realised in only few years or decades. Included in these visions are developments transferring an empirically dominated material description towards a simulation-based design of new materials with tailored properties, a completely virtualised development of prototypes and factories, the use of complex and integrative methods in environmental engineering, e.g., with respect to the handling of greenhouse gases or the global climate change, the transfer from the classical descriptive biology towards a systems-biologically dominated view on technical and natural systems and the summing-up of isolated solutions in the field of biomechanics towards an integrative description of the human body (overall human model).
Within the framework of this visionary approach, the cluster of excellence will focus on the following research areas: "Molecular and Particle Simulation", "Advances Mechanics of Multi-scale and Multi-field Problems", "Systems Analysis and Inverse Problems", "Numerical and Computational Mathematics", "Integrated Data Management and Interactive Visualisation" as well as "Hybrid High-performance Computing Systems and Simulation Software Engineering". Furthermore, an "Integrated Platform of Reflection and Evaluation" is integrated for the assessment of simulation results.
