The rise of petascale computing provides great potential for new insight, provided one can harness the resources. This project will develop a state-of-the-art computational framework for solving general partial differential equations relevant to many contemporary applications in astrophysics and the geosciences. This project will design a toolkit for maximum extensibility by a large community of scientists and applied mathematicians. Building a highly flexible framework allows the agile design and side-by-side comparison of new mathematical models and computational algorithms. This project will employ the new framework on a number of key science areas such as the dynamics of solar magnetism, and tidal interactions in stars and planetary interiors.

佩斯卡尔计算的兴起为新见解提供了巨大的潜力，只要可以利用资源。该项目将开发一个最先进的计算框架，以解决与许多当代应用在天体物理学和地球科学中相关的一般偏微分方程。该项目将设计一个工具包，以最大程度地由大量的科学家和应用数学家社区扩展。建立一个高度灵活的框架可以使新数学模型和计算算法的敏捷设计和并排比较。该项目将在许多关键科学领域（例如太阳能磁性动力学）以及恒星和行星内部的潮汐相互作用上采用新框架。
