Complex fluids flow and transport governs the production of European and global industries, along with natural hazards.

The history of the cosmos is encrypted in stars. To decipher the evolution of stars, galaxies and the cosmos, we require a deeper understanding of how exactly stars produce the emitted radiation.

Investigation of processes at nanosurfaces is highly challenging since atoms in the bulk typically dominate the signal measured in experiments, and here molecular ab-initio level simulations can produce valuable information.

In the context of aeronautics and air transport, the industry has to face new challenges regarding performance and sustainability.

Colloidal Quantum Dots (QDs) are nano-sized crystallites notable for their exceptional semiconductive properties, which were recently acknowledged with the Nobel Prize in Chemistry.

Radiotherapy (RT) is one of the most frequently used methods for cancer treatment (above 50% of patients will receive RT).

Contact line phenomena entail multi-physics processes that operate at disparate scales, often posing formidable large-scale computing challenges.

Numerical weather prediction (NWP) plays a critical role for European societies to avoid weather-induced harm and improve benefits, e.g. in the agricultural sector or for renewable energies.

Thermodynamic modelling routinely guides the research and development (R&D) of new materials and the CALPHAD (CALculation of PHAse Diagrams) method is one of the approaches of choice because of its accuracy achieved with a modest computational effort.
