During the EuroCC-2 project, Kirils Surovovs, the researcher at the Institute of Numerical Modelling, submitted an application for the resources of Luxembourg supercomputer MeluXina (12th most powerful supercomputer in the EU). The title of the application was “Investigation of OpenFOAM hydrodynamic simulation stability and scalability”. The project was devoted to silicon melt flow simulations (e.g., […]
With the participation of our Institute’s leading researcher, Stanislavs Gendelis, a scientific article “Impact of global warming and building renovation on the heat demand and district heating capacity: Case of the city of Riga” has been published in the journal “Energy” (Q1, Impact Factor = 8.9; CiteScore=13.4). This article presents a methodology to assess the […]
A publication “Simulation of Axial and Radial Species Segregation in Floating Zone Si Growth” by the researchers from the Institute of Numerical Modelling: Kirils Surovovs, Maksims Surovovs, Andrejs Sabanskis and Jānis Virbulis, has been put on the cover of the scientific journal Crystals. The publication was made in collaboration with the Institute of Crystal Growth […]
The “Energy Efficiency in Multi-Apartment Buildings” program of the State Development Financial Institution ALTUM started in the spring of 2016 and is in the active stage of project implementation, new project applications are not accepted. A total of 989 project applications were submitted to the program, of which 347 have been already completed, and 124 […]
Researchers from the INM Semiconductor Technology Laboratory participated in the conference “Seventh European Conference on Crystal Growth” in Paris from July 24 to 27. Andrejs Sabanskis presented research on dislocation modeling in germanium crystals. Using self-developed software, more than a hundred calculations were performed to describe the effect of various process parameters on the dislocation density distribution. […]
A paper “Particle tracking velocimetry in liquid gallium flow around a cylindrical obstacle” by the researchers of the Institute of Numerical Modelling (INM) – Mihails Birjukovs, Peteris Zvejnieks, and Andris Jakovics – was published in the journal “Experiments in Fluids” on June 1, 2022 by researchers from Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf Tobias Lappan, Martin Sarma, Sascha Heitkam, […]
HPC (High-Performance Computing) Competence Centre “SuperS” invites representatives from industry, academia, and other interested parties to take part in «Open HPC week 2022». The event will take part on June 28 and 29. Supercomputing or HPC is used all over the world to perform large-scale calculations and various types of simulations much faster, providing a […]
Contactless methods are essential in many modern technological processes to move and control liquid metals. For example, a novel energy-efficient alternative to the “classical” multi-stage continuous casting process, where initial square-cut ingots are repeatedly heated and rolled in a roller system to obtain thin steel strips, is the direct strip casting, where liquid metals are […]
A new publication has been published by researchers from the Institute of Numerical Modelling, Peteris Zvejnieks, Mihails Birjukovs, Martins Klevs and Andris Jakovics. The article “MHT-X: offline multiple hypothesis tracking with algorithm X” has been published in the journal “Experiments in Fluids” (Q1) on March 8th, 2022. The article was written in collaboration with the […]
A new publication has been published by researchers from the Institute of numerical modeling, Mihails Birjukovs and Andris Jakovičs, in cooperation with scientists Maris Sinka and Diana Bajare. The article “Combined in situ and in silico validation of a material model for hempcrete” was published on February 28, 2022, in the Construction and Building Materials […]
