  • Abstract
    When a deadly contaminant is released in a city, the window of time for meaningful response is brief. High-performance computing can play a major role in preparing an effective response. This article describes one such effort, which exploits detailed 3D computational fluid dynamics simulations of the airflow in buildings and cities
