Scientific context
Numerical models are very useful for environmental applications.
Several difficulties must be handled simultaneously, in a
multidisciplinary context. The team SAGE undertakes research on
environmental applications and high performance computing and deals
with two subjects:
- numerical algorithms, involving parallel and grid computing,
- numerical models applied to hydrogeology and to geophysics.
These two subjects are highly interconnected: the first topic aims
at designing numerical algorithms, which lead to high efficiency on
parallel and grid architectures; these algorithms are applied to
geophysical models.
Moreover, the team SAGE, in collaboration with other partners, develops
a software platform for groundwater numerical simulations in
heterogeneous subsurface.
