Schaeffler India partners IISC for advanced research facility

Schaeffler India has opened a computational research infrastructure at the Foundation for Science Innovation and Development (FSID), Bengaluru, in collaboration with IISC. This facility, supported by Schaeffler India's CSR program HOPE, aims to strengthen research capabilities through High-Performance Computing (HPC) for large-scale simulations, data-intensive modeling, and advanced analytics across materials, energy systems, and sustainable mobility. The initiative will foster stronger industry collaborations, improve research quality, and benefit IISC faculty, FSID-incubated startups, external startups, MSMEs, PhD scholars, and students. Additionally, Schaeffler India signed a Master Research Agreement with IISC, laying the groundwork for multiple future research projects and reinforcing its commitment to collaborative innovation and advanced research. The facility is designed for high computational efficiency, with a long-term aim of achieving 32 PFLOPs performance.
