As of May 2026: Developed NeuroFEM algorithm for physics simulations

For decades, simulating the physics of airplane wings, nuclear weapons, or weather systems required warehouse-sized supercomputers consuming megawatts of power. Researchers at Sandia National Laboratories have now demonstrated that brain-inspired neuromorphic chips can solve these same equations (the partial differential equations underlying nearly all physics simulations) with a fraction of the energy.
