Overview

Introduction video

A cloud service for performing, teaching and collaborating on numerical simulations. Driven by space physics subject, but expandable to almost arbitrary subjects. The Aalto MULTI cloud service enables exploration of the MULTI model, its results and simulations-on-demand, as well as doubling as a teaching platform.

The service is now open! Guest users may browse and visualize two basic simulations of Mars and Venus interacting with the solar wind. Registered users may perform their own simulations, please contact the group for details.

Platforms and tools
