<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Lecturer</b>: Dr.-Ing. habil. Thomas Frank (LRZ), Dr. Nisarg Patel (LRZ)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Abstract</b>: The focus of this course with its 20 lectures and about 10 practical exercises is targeted on students, PhD's and researchers with good knowledge in the fundamentals of fluid mechanics and potentially with some first experience
in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). The course will focus on the introduction to the ANSYS Fluid Dynamics software packages, i.e. ANSYS CFX and ANSYS Fluent. Further, participants will be familiarised with the main steps of the typical CFD workflow, in
particular with CFD preprocessing / CFD setup creation, serial and parallel solver execution and CFD post-processing in both CFD solver systems CFX and Fluent. Correctness of boundary conditions and CFD setup specifications, solver convergence control, solver
monitoring, customization capabilities of the solvers and the post-processing as well as recommended CFD best practices are covered.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Date: </b>Wednesday, December 2 - Thursday, December 3, 2020, 10:00 - 15:00 CET<b><o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Lecturer: </b>Schrödinger software experts <b><o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Abstract: </b>The Schrödinger drug discovery platform encompasses solutions for predictive physics-based modelling, machine learning, data analytics, and collaboration. Through hands-on exercises and interactive presentations, we will
work together with the attendees on industrial-level computational modelling tasks in the fields of chemical & biological molecular design. During this workshop, we will also give an overview and hands-on training on the Schrödinger Materials Science Suite.
We will particularly focus on efficient structure generation, automated workflows and property-oriented analysis tools, which are important to overcome challenges towards wider application of computational tools in the rational design of new materials in industry.
We will discuss simulation approaches for different length and time scales, including quantum mechanics and molecular dynamics, as well as machine learning.<b><o:p></o:p></b></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Abstract: </b>This online course covers performance engineering approaches on the compute node level. Even application developers who are fluent in OpenMP and MPI often lack a good grasp of how much performance could at best be achieved
by their code. This course conveys the required knowledge to develop a thorough understanding of the interactions between software and hardware. This process must start at the core, socket, and node level, where the code gets executed that does the actual
computational work.<b><o:p></o:p></b></p>
