EuroHPC Summit

The EuroHPC Summit Week (EHPCSW) 2021 will gather the main European HPC stakeholders from technology suppliers and HPC infrastructures to scientific and industrial HPC users in Europe. As in previous years, PRACE, the Partnership for Advanced Computing in Europe, organises the eighth edition of its Scientific and Industrial Conference (PRACEdays21) within the EHPCSW 2021. PRACEdays21 will bring […]
In two new EU-wide projects, HLRS will coordinate an effort to enhance HPC competencies, promote cooperation, and support the implementation of best practices across Europe.

(Author: António Maria de Afonseca Portela Roseira Muralha, LNEC) Description/ Scientific objectives and goals: Dams over the world involve very specific features, namely in what concerns the hydraulic safety appurtenances such as the spillways. Spillways generate high velocity water flows, a particular case being water free jets strongly impacting rocky river beds downstream. The flow […]
