Research
The Research Training Group (RTG) aims at a holistic and research-based education in applied mathematics and simulation based fluid dynamics. The RTG can rely on well-developed interdisciplinary collaborations between internationally renowned and well-connected senior and junior members of a PI-team from mathematics, climate research & meteorology, engineering and medical imaging.
The participants share a profound overlap in scientific interests. This is manifested in many joint activities within the Lothar Collatz Centre, which provides the platform of the integrated interdisciplinary research program of the RTG.
Nine innovative, coherent PhD projects are organized as research topics in the three core areas (M) Modeling, (S) Simulation, and (O) Optimization. Based on the team's core expertise, the RTG concentrates its research on MSO-mathematics, with application focus on computational fluid dynamics.
