Multiscale Dynamics

Combining scientific computing with model reduction and machine learning, with particular focus on plasma dynamics, in high voltage and plasma technology and in lightning.

The leader of the group Multiscale Dynamics: Ute Ebert

Nature and technology are full of dynamics, often involving multiple scales in length, time and energy. To model these processes, we combine scientific computing with model reduction and machine learning, with particular focus on plasma dynamics in lightning, plasma technology and high-voltage engineering.

Within national and European projects, we collaborate with colleagues in applied plasma physics, electrical and mechanical engineering, atmospheric electricity, and with non-academic partners.
