Institute for Scientific Computation

Computational science involves the use and analysis of mathematical models on high- performance computers to solve scientific and engineering problems in various disciplines. Such disciplines include nuclear engineering, reservoir modeling, environmental studies, seismology, aeronautics, biology, economics and medical imaging. Scientific computation constitutes a powerful “third arm” to theory and experimentation, and provides an innovative methodology to multidisciplinary problem solving.
ISC serves as a platform for conducting and coordinating multidisciplinary research under the four disciplines of scientific computation: data management, mathematical modeling, numerical solutions and visualization.

Pending Backrest Cleanup

On my quest to rid my ride of rust I found the contaminants on the backrest mounts to be unacceptable. Take a look:

Sure it is not bad, but then again, it isn’t good, either.
I did replace all of the rusty bolts, however, the powdercoating seems to be eaten away and what is left remaining is a layer of rust.
Current investigating technical remediation for this that involve sandblasting and powdercoating.
