Simulation of the 2nd Bosphorus Bridge

MotivationThe earthquake safety analysis of the 2nd Bosphorus Bridge in Istanbul is of great

practical interest.

Strategy

A high resolution FEM model of

the bridge has to be developed

Empirical knowledge of typical

earthquake loads at Istanbul provides input for the simulation

The resulting FEM calculations require supercomputer resources

10 Breakthroughs of the Year 2008 SCIENCE VOL 322:

Proton‟s Mass „Predicted‟

STARTING FROM A THEORETICAL DESCRIPTION OF ITS INNARDS,

physicists precisely calculated the mass of the proton and

other particles made of quarks and gluons. The numbers

aren‟t new; experimenters have been able to weigh the

proton for nearly a century. But the new results show that

physicists can at last make accurate calculations of the

ultracomplex strong force that binds quarks….
