Together with visiting professor Prof. Dr. Simron Singh, the Resource Lab of the University of Augsburg develops solution-oriented approaches in the field of Industrial Ecology. A particular focus is placed on adaptation measures for small island states. Currently, the research group is investigating the resource requirements of the Maldives in the context of future sea-level rise. [Resource Lab]

For students in the 3rd semester of Industrial Engineering, an information event on the seven specializations will take place on February 10 at 5:00 p.m. in room T-1001. Lecturers from the different specializations will present the content and career prospects in their respective fields and will be available to answer questions. [Resource and Chemical Engineering]

As part of the Public Climate School 2025, Prof. Michael Resch (HLRS Stuttgart) gave a well-attended public lecture at the University of Augsburg on the interplay between artificial intelligence, high-performance computing, and energy consumption. [High-Performance Scientific Computing]

On the 2nd and 3rd of December we hosted the CAAPS workshop on Demystifying Numerical Dissipation in Simulation Codes. We had two external and one internal talk, after which we engaged in some lively discussions and hands-on activities on how to determine numerical dissipation in simulation codes.

On 27th October 2025, Michael Schlottke-Lakemper gave his inaugural lecture at the University of Augsburg. The (German) title of the talk was

Wissenschaftliches Rechnen im KI-Zeitalter: Zwischen Rechen- und Denkmaschine

which roughly translates to "Scientific Computing in the AI Age: From Number Crunchers to Thinking Machines".

Our new paper "Robust and efficient pre-processing techniques for particle-based methods including dynamic boundary generation" has been published in the journal Computer Physics Communication. [High-Performance Scientific Computing]

Physicists at the University of Augsburg together with collaborators from the Budapest University of Technology and Economics and Rutgers University, USA, have successfully switched an antiferromagnetic state in an insulator by voltage pulses, within just a few tens of billionths of a second. Their findings were recently published in Physical Review Letters.?
