The Computational Hypersonics Research Lab owns three supercomputing clusters reserved exlusively for use by lab members. This removes any dependence on external supercomputing infrastructure, which enables us to accelerate and expand our research beyond the capabilites of most academic computational labs.
Research at the University of Minnesota has produced state-of-the-art codes for simulating hypersonic flows. These include US3D and DPLR. Originally developed for research, these have grown into production-level codes and have become trusted standards across many agencies.
