CFD has many interesting applications, but every so often we hear of one that most of us may have never imagined. Dr. Yuta Shiino is a paleontologist (scientist who studies fossils) who uses Cradle SC/Tetra CFD software to understand the lives of ancient underwater invertebrates called Brachiopods, distant relatives of many shellfish. He describes his research as "a study to uncover the living motions from unmoving fossils".
