"Computational science (also scientific computing or scientific computation) is concerned with constructing mathematical models and quantitative analysis techniques and using computers to analyze and solve scientific problems.[1] In practical use, it is typically the application of computer simulation and other forms of computation from numerical analysis andtheoretical computer science to problems in various scientific disciplines."
Applications of computational science
Numerical simulations
There are 2 types:
Reconstruct and understand known events (e.g., earthquake, tsunamis and other natural disasters).
Predict future or unobserved situations (e.g., weather, sub-atomic particle behavior).
Model fitting and data analysis
Computational optimization
