Industry Solutions

We are committed to bringing the world of high-performance computing (HPC) to all companies.

In particular, helping small and medium sized companies overcome the barriers to using HPC is a priority for us.

Accelerator, our on-demand computing service for business, brings leading edge supercomputing capability directly to your desktop. We are currently offering free trials of Accelerator. 

Case Studies

Aerospace: advanced CFD reduces noise and emissions
We worked with the Aircraft Research Association (ARA) in porting its modelling and simulation workflows to the ARCHER platform, enabling ARA to perform its largest CFD simulation ever:

Automotive: delivering the competitive edge
Swedish SME Koenigsegg is a leading designer and manufacturer of high-performance sports cars. Using EPCC’s HPC-on demand service, Koeniggsegg buys simulation as a service on demand, only paying for what it uses. This reduces development costs and time to market.

Construction: upscale your business with high performance data analytics
IES develops the world’s leading integrated building-performance modelling software system. EPCC helped to accelerate the performance of the tool by adapting it to run on large-scale HPC systems. We also provided the HPC-platform-on-demand service that allows simulations to be run, as a service, on a pay-per-use basis, drastically reducing cost and run-time.

Image analysis: generating value from big data
Global Surface Intelligence (GSi) provides machine learning and predictive analytics on large and complex data sets. We re-engineered GSi's code and moved it to our HPC systems. As a result of our work, a full set of satellite imagery for the entire Earth’s surface can now be analysed in a few hours rather than days.

Oil and Gas: fire and explosion modelling
Gexcon AS is a world-leading company in the field of safety and risk management and advanced dispersion, explosion and fire modelling. Gexcon and EPCC have collaborated to create a unique explosion and fire modelling service for process-manufacturing industries. Users benefit from easy, low cost access to a FLACS service that can reduce simulation time from weeks to hours.

Renewables: HPC-enabled clean energy
WaveNET is a radical new wave-energy device developed by Albatern. We undertook the development of software that would be capable of simulating a large-scale Wavenet array on a high-performance computing system.
