The Computational Mechanics and Reliability Group have acquired significant computational resources to support their research. This cornerstone of the capability is based around an 8 node / 160 core Xeon E5 cluster with a total of 1024 GB memory. This is linked to 2 NAS storage systems with a capacity in excess of 45 TB. This central computer facility is augmented by High-End GPU workstations with 20 Xeon cores, 128 GB memory and Nvidia P5000 GPUs. The group have a range of state-of-the-art structural mechanics, computational fluid dynamics and multiphysics software packages, including ANSYS multiphysics and COMSOL and CAD packages such as Autodesk Inventor.
