Parallel Agglomeration Strategies for Industrial Unstructured Solvers
نویسندگان
چکیده
An industrial aerospace code has been parallelised for execution on shared memory and distributed memory architectures. The flow solver uses an explicit time integration approach and utilises an agglomeration multigrid strategy to accelerate the convergence. A novel method has been used to efficiently parallelise the multigrid solver that also minimised any intrusion into the flow solver. The parallel code uses standard message passing routines and is demonstrated to be portable.

A Fast Iterative Method for Solving the Eikonal Equation on Tetrahedral Domains
Generating numerical solutions to the eikonal equation and its many variations has a broad range of applications in both the natural and computational sciences. Efficient solvers on cutting-edge, parallel architectures require new algorithms that may not be theoretically optimal, but that are designed to allow asynchronous solution updates and have limited memory access patterns. This paper pre...
متن کاملParallel Multigrid Solvers for 3D Unstructured Finite Element Problems in Large Deformation Elasticity and Plasticity
Multigrid is a popular solution method for the set of linear algebraic equations that arise from PDEs discretized with the nite element method. The application of multigrid to unstructured grid problems, however, is not well developed. We discuss a method, that uses many of the same techniques as the nite element method itself, to apply standard multigrid algorithms to unstructured nite element...

A parallel tetrahedral mesh adaptation code is expanded to treat general, mixed-element unstructured meshes comprised of any combination of basic element types. Emphasis is placed on developing conforming mesh modification methods that are solver-independent. Specific developments include the implementation of a treatment for viscous, high aspect ratio near wall tetrahedra, and cell subdivision...
متن کاملEcient Mesh Partitioning for Parallel P.d.e. Solvers on Distributed Memory Machines Extended Version of the Paper Which Appears in the Proceedings of the Sixth Siam Conference on Parallel Processing for Scientic Computing
When solving a partial dierential equation on a MIMD distributed memory computer there arises the problem of distributing the mesh so that the communication requirement of the numerical solver is minimised subject to a load balancing constraint. In this paper we introduce a new algorithm for this partitioning problem for unstructured meshes and study its properties, along with those of other co...

This paper demonstrates that scalability and competitive eeciency can be achieved for unstructured grid nite element applications on distributed memory machines, such as the Connection Machine CM-5 system. The eeciency of nite element solvers is analyzed through two applications: an implicit computational aerodynamics application and an explicit solid mechanics application. Scalability of mesh ...
