Description

Designing an ontology and creating a knowledge graph encompassing scientific computing, simulation science, mathematical modeling and a variety of application domains is a truly challenging task. In this talk, we will first sketch the MaRDI endeavor towards abstracting such an ontology and populating such a knowledge graph. Contributed talks by, e.g., F. Wübbeling, will dive into the details. We then sketch a multi-X forward-inverse simulate-optimise-invert use case, namely the novel limb amputation technique AMI (agonist-antagonist myoneural interface). Here, the quantity of interest is the prestretch of the artificial muscle-tendon link, applied during surgery. This renders the entire setting into a parameter identification problem, and ultimately, into an optimisation problem. We use this challenging application to showcase the power of the modeled knowledge, in particular with respect to automatically/iteratively tailoring numerical solution schemes to a given model hierarchy with variable target accuracies, precisions and resources. Based on hypothesized "what-if" questions, we demonstrate tradeoffs and benefits between precision (uncertainty), accuracy (certainty) and simulation budgets (runtime, hardware provisioning).
