Concurrent computational testing of two building models with the help of EPET.

A NASA supercomputer. Computers like these are often used to run the most complicated computer models

Computer models are also used in fields such as earthquake performance simulation and making models of buildings.

Computer models can accurately predict many things in the future provided they have information data from previous similar situations. However they are not always 100% accurate.
