Simulations helping to cut through time and expense of certifying new materials by digitally customizing the ideal alloy Titanium alloys serve as cornerstone materials for the aerospace industry — stronger and lighter than steel, resistant to rust and corrosion and resilient past the melting points of most other metals. Companies such as RTX, formerly Raytheon Technologies, […]
Saving lives with fast, accurate weather prediction
The National Center of Meteorology (NCM) provides high-quality weather and climate services to public and private organizations. It delivers earlier, more precise warnings of severe weather events with a Lenovo supercomputer based on ThinkSystem servers—all powered by 3rd Gen Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors, helping to protect people and property from harm. According to Mohammed Al-Amri, […]
Frontier Pushes Boundaries: 86% of Nodes Engaged on Reactor Simulation Runs
Details have trickled out of the Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility (OLCF) indicating progress in preparing Frontier, the exascale-class supercomputer ranked the world’s most powerful system, for full user operations. Earlier this week, the Exascale Computing Project released an article on its web site entitled “Predicting the Future of Fission Power” discussing the ExaSMR….

HPE to Build Weather Supercomputer for Denmark, Iceland, Ireland and The Netherlands
Building on its UK Met Office win, one of the largest supercomputer deals of the past year, Hewlett Packard Enterprise today announced that it is building a supercomputer for the United Weather Centres – West (UWC-West), a collaboration between the Danish Meteorological Institute, Icelandic Met Office, Met Éireann, Ireland’s national weather service, and the Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute to advance […]
Why HPE Cray EX Is the Supercomputer of Choice at Leading Weather Centers
[SPONSORED POST] For decades, compute resources used for weather forecasting have tracked with advances in state-of-the-art supercomputing. Which is to say that the weather segment demands systems with the greatest data ingest and storage capacity combined with the most powerful processing capabilities. As the accuracy of daily weather forecasts and warnings of severe weather depend on high-performance computing combined, increasingly, with artificial intelligence, it is perhaps not surprising that weather segment IT spending has not been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Hyperion Research predicts that it will in fact grow by an astonishing 33 percent between 2021–20241, significantly outpacing
