چکیده

This paper examines the application of unstructured multigrid, using a sequence of independent tetrahedral grids. The test cases examined are for inviscid ow over an aircraft and an M6 wing. The sensitivity of the method to grid sequence and cycling strategy are investigated. All of the calculations were performed on a parallel computer. This was achieved by using the OPlus library which, by the straightforward insertion of subroutine calls, facilitates parallelisation of the resulting code. A single source OPlus application code can be compiled to executed on either a parallel or sequential machine. This greatly increases the usability of the parallel machine, and the maintainability of the code.

Multigrid Aircraft Computations Using the Oplus Parallel Library

This paper presents the OPlus library which is a exible library for distributed memory parallel computations on unstructured grids through the straightforward insertion of simple subroutine calls. It is based on an underlying abstraction involving sets, pointers (or mappings) between sets, and operations performed on sets. The key restriction enabling parallelisation is that operations on a par...

Parleda: a Library for Parallel Processing in Computational Geometry Applications

ParLeda is a software library that provides the basic primitives needed for parallel implementation of computational geometry applications. It can also be used in implementing a parallel application that uses geometric data structures. The parallel model that we use is based on a new heterogeneous parallel model named HBSP, which is based on BSP and is introduced here. ParLeda uses two main lib...

Getting Started with Zoltan: A Short Tutorial

The Zoltan library is a toolkit of parallel combinatorial algorithms for unstructured and/or adaptive computations. In this paper, we describe the most significant tools in Zoltan: dynamic partitioning, graph coloring and ordering. We also describe how to obtain, build, and use Zoltan in parallel applications.

Parallel 3D Adaptive Compressible Navier-Stokes Solver in GeoFEM with Dynamic Load-Balancing by DRAMA Library

Grid adaptation is a very useful method for applications with unstructured meshes but requires dynamic load-balancing for efficient parallel computation. In this study, a parallel 3D compressible Navier-Stokes code with adaptive hybrid meshes (epHYBRID) and parallel adaptation procedure (pADAPT) have been developed on GeoFEM parallel platform. The DRAMA library has been integrated into the pADA...
