A massively parallel implementation of the Optimal Transportation Meshfree (pOTM) method for explicit solid dynamics
نویسندگان
چکیده
Presented is a massively parallel implementation of the Optimal Transportation Meshfree (pOTM) method Li et al., 2010 for explicit solid dynamics. Its implementation is based on a two-level scheme using Message Passing Interface between compute servers and threaded parallelism on the multi-core processors within each server. Both layers dynamically subdivide the problem to provide excellent parallel scalability. pOTM is used on three problems and compared to experiments to demonstrate accuracy and performance. For both a Taylor-anvil and a hypervelocity impact problem, the pOTM implementation scales nearly perfectly to about 8000 cores. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Influences of Small-Scale Effect and Boundary Conditions on the Free Vibration of Nano-Plates: A Molecular Dynamics Simulation
This paper addresses the influence of boundary conditions and small-scale effect on the free vibration of nano-plates using molecular dynamics (MD) and nonlocal elasticity theory. Based on the MD simulations, Large-scale Atomic/Molecular Massively Parallel Simulator (LAMMPS) is used to obtain fundamental frequencies of single layered graphene sheets (SLGSs) which modeled in this paper as the mo...
متن کاملAn Efficient Implementation of Phase Field Method with Explicit Time Integration
The phase field method integrates the Griffith theory and damage mechanics approach to predict crack initiation, propagation, and branching within one framework. No crack tracking topology is needed, and complex crack shapes can be captures without user intervention. In this paper, a detailed description of how the phase field method is implemented with explicit dynamics into LS-DYNA is provide...
متن کاملControl of a Chemical Reactor with Chaotic Dynamics
In this paper, control of a non-isothermal continuous stirred tank reactor in which two parallel autocatalytic reactions take place has been addressed. The reactor shows chaotic behavior for a certain set of reactor parameters. In order to control the product concentration, an optimal state feedback controller has been designed. Since concentrations of reactor species are ...
متن کاملOn the Infinite Particle Limit in Lagrangian Dynamics and Convergence of Optimal Transportation Meshfree Methods
We consider Lagrangian systems in the limit of infinitely many particles. It is shown that the corresponding discrete action functionals Γ-converge to a continuum action functional acting on probability measures of particle trajectories. Also, the convergence of stationary points of the action is established. Minimizers of the limiting functional and, more generally, limiting distributions of s...
متن کاملOptimal Shape Design for a Cooling Pin Fin Connection Profil
A shape optimization problem of cooling fins for computer parts and integrated circuits is modeled and solved in this paper. The main purpose is to determine the shape of a two-dimensional pin fin, which leads to the maximum amount of removed heat. To do this, the shape optimization problem is defined as maximizing the norm of the Nusselt number distribution at the boundary of the pin fin's con...
