General Science / Re: Good examples of contemporary computational/theoretical engineering/physics rese

I should clarify when I say computational, I mean computer simulation being the major/only component.
Regarding the title, I was reading some papers on radiation detection as well as application of computational fluid dynamics for part of the system design within some of those papers. I wasn't really sure whether they count as engineering or physics.
Also, If I was solely to base my understanding of what research is from those examples, it would seem that there is both computational as well as experimental in every paper. But from what little I understand, there are papers that are purely theoretical as well as those that are purely computational. If those are something that exist, I was hoping someone could point out papers which serve as good examples of the method of doing such research.
Cosmology is probably an obvious example. I was hoping for research where one could do experimental but has chosen to submit simulation results only (again only if such a thing exists). If you are aware, you could probably give an example in the fields I mentioned (radiation detection and CFD). I just didn't want to restrict you to them.
