Computational Engineering is an emerging discipline that deals with the development and application of computational models for engineering, known as Computational Engineering Models[1] or CEM. Computational engineering uses computers to solve engineering design problems important to a variety of industries.[2] At this time, various different approaches are summarized under the term Computational Engineering, including using computational geometry and virtual design for engineering tasks,[3][4] often coupled with a simulation-driven approach[5] In Computational Engineering, algorithms solve mathematical and logical models[6] that describe engineering challenges, sometimes coupled with some aspect of AI, specifically Reinforcement Learning.[7]
In Computational Engineering the engineer encodes their knowledge using logical structuring. The result is an algorithm, the Computational Engineering Model, that can produce many different variants of engineering designs, based on varied input requirements. The results can then be analyzed through additional mathematical models to create algorithmic feedback loops.[8]
Simulations of physical behaviors relevant to the field, often coupled with high-performance computing, to solve complex physical problems arising in engineering analysis and design (as well as natural phenomena (computational science). It is therefore related to Computational Science and Engineering, which has been described as the "third mode of discovery" (next to theory and experimentation).[9]
In Computational Engineering, computer simulation provides the capability to create feedback that would be inaccessible to traditional experimentation or where carrying out traditional empirical inquiries is prohibitively expensive.
Computational Engineering should neither be confused with pure computer science, nor with computer engineering,[10] although a wide domain in the former is used in Computational Engineering (e.g., certain algorithms, data structures, parallel programming, high performance computing) and some problems in the latter can be modeled and solved with Computational Engineering methods (as an application area).
It is typically offered as a masters or doctorate program.[11]
