Parallel Irregular Software for Wave Propagation Simulation

Performance Analysis of a Parallel Program for Wave Propagation Simulation

During the last decade, performance prediction has been repeatedly quoted as a key factor to developing parallel systems [1, 2, 3]. Predicting the performance of a parallel program as a function of the number of processors and of the problem size is crucial for choosing the best hardware configuration and for tuning various parameters. This paper presents a method for achieving performance anal...

ParFlow++: a C++ Parallel Application for Wave Propagation Simulation

The ParFlow method permits to simulate outdoor wave propagation in urban environment. It compares with the so-called Lattice Boltzman Model (LBM), which describes a physical system in terms of the motion of fictitious microscopic particles over a lattice. One of the objectives of the European project STORMS1 (Software Tools for the Optimization of Resources in Mobile Systems) is to develop a so...

Numerical Simulation of Random Irregular Waves for Wave Generation in Laboratory Flumes

Understanding of wave hydrodynamics and its effects are important for engineers and scientists. Important insights may be gained from laboratory studies.  Often the waves are simulated in laboratory flumes do not have the full characteristics of real sea waves. It is then necessary to present reliable methods of wave generation in wave flumes.  In this paper, the results of numerically simulate...

Elastic Wave Propagation Simulation System Based On Parallel Processing Architecture

The authors developed numerical methods based on Local Interaction Simulation Approach (LISA) and Elastodynamic Finite Integration Technique (EFIT) for simulation of elastic wave propagation in structures. The methods have been implemented in the simulation framework using parallel processing architecture Computer Unified Device Architecture (CUDA) offered by graphical processing units (GPUs). ...
