Abstract: ETH-Zurich has proposed a new concept for wave propagation laboratories in which the physical experiment is linked with a numerical simulation in real-time. Adding live experimental data to a larger numerical simulation domain creates a never before realized virtual lab environment that enables the study of frequencies inherent in important real-world seismological and acoustic scenarios. This system must perform computations typically reserved for offline HPC applications, but produce results in a matter of microseconds. To accomplish this, NI is developing a PXI system using LabVIEW RT and FPGA-based FlexRIO data acquisition technology for implementation of the real-time heterogeneous simulator.
