&lt;div&gt;Simulation group led by Dusan Odstrcil (USA) and Fang Shen (China); At-large leaders: Noe Lugaz (USA) and Chin-Chun Wu (USA)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=='''Scientific Objectives'''==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The main ISEST objective is to ''&amp;quot;improve the scientific understanding of the origin and propagation of solar transients, and develop the prediction capacity of these transients' arrival and potential impact on the Earth&amp;quot;''.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=='''Scientific Objectives'''==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The main ISEST objective is to ''&amp;quot;improve the scientific understanding of the origin and propagation of solar transients, and develop the prediction capacity of these transients' arrival and potential impact on the Earth&amp;quot;''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;The WG3 (Simulation Group) will:&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* Provide global context for all CME events investigated by the ISEST team&lt;br /&gt;
* Investigate processes of the CME initiation, heliospheric propagation, and CMEs interaction&lt;br /&gt;
* Develop tools to assist collaboration of numerical modelers, theoreticians, and observers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=='''Scientific Questions'''==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Initiation===&lt;br /&gt;
*What’s the difference among the  models to using hydrodynamic (e.g. CONE), Blob-like , Flux rope CMEs?&lt;br /&gt;
*Data-driven model&lt;br /&gt;
===Propagation and interaction===&lt;br /&gt;
*How the corona heating process affect the Propagation?&lt;br /&gt;
*How to control the div(B) during the simulation?&lt;br /&gt;
*How long the Lorentz force dominates over the aerodynamic drag &lt;br /&gt;
*Which processes are involved in ICME-ICME interactions? Magnetic reconnection? &lt;br /&gt;
*How ICME-ICME interactions affect the dynamics and structure of ICMEs? &lt;br /&gt;
*How high-speed solar wind streams (corotating interacting regions) affect ICMEs? &lt;br /&gt;
*How background solar wind exchanges momentum, energies with ICMEs? &lt;br /&gt;
*How successive CMEs exchanges momentum, energies with each other?&lt;br /&gt;
===Impact===&lt;br /&gt;
* What are forecasting-performances of different empirical, analytical, and numerical models? &lt;br /&gt;
* How well models reproduce heliospheric kinematics of ICMEs? &lt;br /&gt;
* What are the key model-input parameters for CME simulation? Direction? Speed?&lt;br /&gt;
* What can be done regarding the geomagnetic-activity forecasting? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=='''Scientific Objectives'''==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The main ISEST objective is to ''&amp;quot;improve the scientific understanding of the origin and propagation of solar transients, and develop the prediction capacity of these transients' arrival and potential impact on the Earth&amp;quot;''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;The WG3 (Simulation Group) will:&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* Provide global context for all CME events investigated by the ISEST team&lt;br /&gt;
* Investigate processes of the CME initiation, heliospheric propagation, and CMEs interaction&lt;br /&gt;
* Develop tools to assist collaboration of numerical modelers, theoreticians, and observers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=='''Scientific Questions'''==&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
===Initiation===&lt;br /&gt;
*What’s the difference among the  models to using hydrodynamic (e.g. CONE), Blob-like , Flux rope CMEs?&lt;br /&gt;
*Data-driven model&lt;br /&gt;
===Propagation and interaction===&lt;br /&gt;
*How the corona heating process affect the Propagation?&lt;br /&gt;
*How to control the div(B) during the simulation?&lt;br /&gt;
*How long the Lorentz force dominates over the aerodynamic drag &lt;br /&gt;
*Which processes are involved in ICME-ICME interactions? Magnetic reconnection? &lt;br /&gt;
*How ICME-ICME interactions affect the dynamics and structure of ICMEs? &lt;br /&gt;
*How high-speed solar wind streams (corotating interacting regions) affect ICMEs? &lt;br /&gt;
*How background solar wind exchanges momentum, energies with ICMEs? &lt;br /&gt;
*How successive CMEs exchanges momentum, energies with each other?&lt;br /&gt;
===Impact===&lt;br /&gt;
* What are forecasting-performances of different empirical, analytical, and numerical models? &lt;br /&gt;
* How well models reproduce heliospheric kinematics of ICMEs? &lt;br /&gt;
* What are the key model-input parameters for CME simulation? Direction? Speed?&lt;br /&gt;
* What can be done regarding the geomagnetic-activity forecasting? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=='''Scientific Objectives'''==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The main ISEST objective is to ''&amp;quot;improve the scientific understanding of the origin and propagation of solar transients, and develop the prediction capacity of these transients' arrival and potential impact on the Earth&amp;quot;''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;The WG3 (Simulation Group) will:&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* Provide global context for all CME events investigated by the ISEST team&lt;br /&gt;
* Investigate processes of the CME initiation, heliospheric propagation, and CMEs interaction&lt;br /&gt;
* Develop tools to assist collaboration of numerical modelers, theoreticians, and observers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=='''Scientific Questions'''==&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
===Initiation===&lt;br /&gt;
*What’s the difference among the  models to using hydrodynamic (e.g. CONE), Blob-like , Flux rope CMEs?&lt;br /&gt;
*Data-driven model&lt;br /&gt;
===Propagation and interaction===&lt;br /&gt;
*How the corona heating process affect the Propagation?&lt;br /&gt;
*How to control the div(B) during the simulation?&lt;br /&gt;
*How long the Lorentz force dominates over the aerodynamic drag &lt;br /&gt;
*Which processes are involved in ICME-ICME interactions? Magnetic reconnection? &lt;br /&gt;
*How ICME-ICME interactions affect the dynamics and structure of ICMEs? &lt;br /&gt;
*How high-speed solar wind streams (corotating interacting regions) affect ICMEs? &lt;br /&gt;
*How background solar wind exchanges momentum, energies with ICMEs? &lt;br /&gt;
*How successive CMEs exchanges momentum, energies with each other?&lt;br /&gt;
===Impact===&lt;br /&gt;
* What are forecasting-performances of different empirical, analytical, and numerical models? &lt;br /&gt;
* How well models reproduce heliospheric kinematics of ICMEs? &lt;br /&gt;
* What are the key model-input parameters for CME simulation? Direction? Speed?&lt;br /&gt;
* What can be done regarding the geomagnetic-activity forecasting? &lt;br /&gt;

== Scientific Objective ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The main ISEST objective is to ''&amp;quot;improve the scientific understanding of the origin and propagation of solar transients, and develop the prediction capacity of these transients' arrival and potential impact on the Earth&amp;quot;''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;The WG3 (Simulation Group) will:&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* Provide global context for all CME events investigated by the ISEST team&lt;br /&gt;
* Investigate processes of the CME initiation, heliospheric propagation, and CMEs interaction&lt;br /&gt;
* Develop tools to assist collaboration of numerical modelers, theoreticians, and observers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Scientific Questions==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Initiation&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Propagation and interaction&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Impact&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Simulation of the ISEST Event Periods (with WG1 Data) ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Late July to early August 2010&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Scientific Objective ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The main ISEST objective is to ''&amp;quot;improve the scientific understanding of the origin and propagation of solar transients, and develop the prediction capacity of these transients' arrival and potential impact on the Earth&amp;quot;''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;u&amp;gt;The WG3 (Simulation Group) will:&amp;lt;/u&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* Provide global context for all CME events investigated by the ISEST team&lt;br /&gt;
* Investigate processes of the CME initiation, heliospheric propagation, and CMEs interaction&lt;br /&gt;
* Develop tools to assist collaboration of numerical modelers, theoreticians, and observers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Scientific Questions==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Initiation&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Propagation and interaction&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Impact&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Simulation of the ISEST Event Periods (with WG1 Data) ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Late July to early August 2010&lt;br /&gt;
