We present an ideal method for research, development, and design in the manufacturing sector, such as automobile industry, energy-machinery industry, etc., to achieve a carbon-neutral society and the method involves maximizing the use of high-performance computing (HPC), with the goal of leading the manufacturing sector through a strong industry-academia-government collaboration.

We researched and developed advanced simulation software for national projects, such as "Program for Promoting Researches on the Supercomputer Fugaku: Research and development of innovative fluid-dynamics technologies on Fugaku for predicting performance" (Leading institute: Institute of Industrial Science, The University of Tokyo; Issue representative: Chisachi Kato, center director/professor), which is sponsored by MEXT, and "Development of Technologies for Hydrogen Refueling Stations: Development of Technologies for Cost Reduction of Hydrogen Refueling Stations: Establishment of evaluation method for composite pressure vessel/Technology development for technical standard improvement" (Leading institute: Japan Petroleum Energy Center (JPEC); Associate participant: Nobuhiro Yoshikawa, center vice director/professor, Institute of Industrial Science, The University of Tokyo), which is sponsored by New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO).
