However, all of these devices pale in comparison to a new bit of kit that is currently under construction at the lab. The new wind tunnel, along with the other apparatus, will allow the team to collect all sorts of important data. “For These models we run use many, many data inputs,” says Erica.

As a result, a new discipline, known as research computing, has emerged to apply computers, not just software, to research including to help scientists capture images, construct models, which are turned into simulations, and analyse results. Research computing is a sub-discipline of computer science. Scientific imaging in chemistry.
