چکیده
This paper describes the parallel finite element analysis of large scale problem for a nonsteady heat conductive problem using domain decomposition method. In order to solve the issue of scalability of a domain decomposition method, the developed system employs the balancing domain decomposition method and hierarchical data management technique among the parallel processors. The present system is successfully applied to the FEM analysis of over two million degrees of freedom on a massively parallel computer, SR8000.
