The validity and incremental validity of knowledge tests, low-fidelity simulations, and high-fidelity simulations for predicting job performance in advanced-level high-stakes selection.

The validity and incremental validity of knowledge tests, low-fidelity simulations, and high-fidelity simulations for predicting job performance in advanced-level high-stakes selection.

In high-stakes selection among candidates with considerable domain-specific knowledge and experience, investigations of whether high-fidelity simulations (assessment centers; ACs) have incremental validity over low-fidelity simulations (situational judgment tests; SJTs) are lacking. Therefore, this article integrates research on the validity of knowledge tests, low-fidelity simulations, and hig...

Enabling Technologies for High Fidelity Simulations

The progress realized in the development of enabling technologies that are essential in performing high fidelity computational field simulations is presented. These enabling technologies include geometry-mesh generation and adaptation, visualization and feature detection, virtual reality, parallel and distributed computing, and problem solving environment and framework. The development of toolk...

High-Fidelity Simulations of Primary Breakup and Impinging Jet Atomization

Flexible composition and execution of high performance, high fidelity multiscale biomedical simulations

Multiscale simulations are essential in the biomedical domain to accurately model human physiology. We present a modular approach for designing, constructing and executing multiscale simulations on a wide range of resources, from laptops to petascale supercomputers, including combinations of these. Our work features two multiscale applications, in-stent restenosis and cerebrovascular bloodflow,...
