| Our numerical relativity example will be the collision of two black holes which is focus of a major NSF Grand Challenge involving NPAC with seven other institutions in a collaboration led by Richard Matzner at Texas. |
| Note that Numerical Relativity involves solution of Einstein's equations which include as a special case Maxwell's equations used to describe electromagnetic phenomena. |
| Thus issues of relevance to computational electromagnetics (used in study of antennas and radar cross-sections of military aircraft) are implicitly included in this case study. |
| Nearly all partial differential equations which are commonly encountered can be found by choosing parameters or limits in CFD or NR. |
