AMRA: An Adaptive Mesh Refinement Hydrodynamic Code for Astrophysics

Implementation details and test cases of a newly developed hydrodynamic code, amra, are presented. The numerical scheme exploits the adaptive mesh refinement technique coupled to modern high-resolution schemes which are suitable for relativistic and non-relativistic flows. Various physical processes are incorporated using the operator splitting approach, and include self-gravity, nuclear burnin...

Adaptive Mesh Refinement for Astrophysics Applications with ParalleX

Several applications in astrophysics require adequately resolving many physical and temporal scales which vary over several orders of magnitude. Adaptive mesh refinement techniques address this problem effectively but often result in constrained strong scaling performance. The ParalleX execution model is an experimental execution model that aims to expose new forms of program parallelism and el...

GAMER: a GPU-Accelerated Adaptive Mesh Refinement Code for Astrophysics

We present the newly developed code, GAMER (GPU-accelerated Adaptive MEsh Refinement code), which has adopted a novel approach to improve the performance of adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) astrophysical simulations by a large factor with the use of the graphic processing unit (GPU). The AMR implementation is based on a hierarchy of grid patches with an oct-tree data structure. We adopt a three-d...

Adaptive Mesh Refinement in Computational Astrophysics – Methods and Applications

The advent of robust, reliable and accurate higher order Godunov schemes for many of the systems of equations of interest in computational astrophysics has made it important to understand how to solve them in multi-scale fashion. This is so because the physics associated with astrophysical phenomena evolves in multi-scale fashion and we wish to arrive at a multi-scale simulational capability to...

plied and theoretical physics is to fully understand and predict the behavior of systems far from thermodynamic equilibrium,1–4 including those systems driven by an external force or experiencing a sudden change in environment (such as pressure or temperature). They also include systems transitioning from one metastable or long-lived state to another. The need to accurately model and numericall...
