Computational Data Acquisition performed by one or more Research Users on a Model to manipulate its Settings using a specific computational and/or theoretical Technique in order to study, predict, or optimize the behaviour and performance of existing or proposed features and properties of a physical System that would otherwise be too complex, too large/small, too fast/slow, too dangerous, inaccessible, or unacceptable to engage and/or control. Examples of Simulation are: multiscale simulation, finite-element simulation, molecular dynamics simulation, discrete dislocation dynamics simulation.
