The project Multi-resolution methods including quantum chemistry, force fields, and hybrid particle-field schemes by Hylleraas member Michele Cascella together with Jürgen Gauss from the University of Mainz has been approved by the German Research Foundation as part of the Collaborative Research Centre / Transregio TRR 146 “Multiscale Simulation Methods for Soft-Master Systems which will receive about 9 million EUR for the next four years. The project will involve the collaboration of two PhD students (one from Mainz, one from Hylleraas) to develop flexible tools allowing multi-scale simulations for very large systems adopting the most appropriate methods required by the systems under investigation.
The Collaborative Research Centre / Transregio TRR 146 “Multiscale Simulation Methods for Soft-Master Systems is hosted by the University of Mainz, Technical University of Darmstadt, and the Max-Planck Institute for Polymer Research in Mainz, Germany, and the project by Michele Cascella and Jürgen Gauss will establish an important bridge between the Hylleraas Center and another top-level international research initiative.
