A Fully Implicit Domain Decomposition Algorithm for Shallow Water Equations on the Cubed-Sphere
نویسندگان
چکیده
Popular approaches for solving the shallow water equations (SWE) for climate modeling are explicit and semi-implicit methods, both have certain constraints on the time step size. In this paper, we propose and study a fully implicit method which imposes no limit on the time step size, but requires the solution of a large sparse nonlinear system of equations at every time step. The focus of the paper is a parallel, fully coupled, Newton-Krylov-RAS algorithm with a Jacobian matrix explicitly calculated on a weakly non-matching cubed-sphere mesh. Here RAS is a restricted additive Schwarz method. We show numerically that with such a preconditioned nonlinearly implicit method the time step size is no longer constrained by the CFL condition and report superlinear speedup of the algorithm on machines with thousands of processors, and for problems with smooth and non-smooth solutions.

Parallel multilevel methods for implicit solution of shallow water equations with nonsmooth topography on the cubed-sphere
High resolution and scalable parallel algorithms for the shallow water equations on the sphere are very important for modeling the global climate.

متن کاملScalability Studies of an Implicit Shallow Water Solver for the Rossby-Haurwitz Problem
The scalability of a fully implicit global shallow water solver is studied in this paper. In the solver a conservative second-order finite volume scheme is used to discretize the shallow water equations on a cubed-sphere mesh which is free of pole-singularities. Instead of using the popular explicit or semi-implicit methods in climate modeling, we employ a fully implicit method so that the rest...
متن کاملHigh-order finite volume shallow water model on the cubed-sphere: 1D reconstruction scheme
A central-upwind finite-volume (CUFV) scheme for shallow-water model on a nonorthogonal equiangular cubed-sphere grid is developed, consequently extending the 1D reconstruction CUFV transport scheme developed by us. High-order spatial discretization based on weighted essentially non-oscillatory (WENO) is considered for this effort. The CUFV method combines the alluring features of classical upw...

In this paper, a fully implicit finite volume Eulerian scheme and a corresponding scalable parallel solver are developed for some tracer transport problems on the cubed-sphere. To efficiently solve the large sparse linear system at each time step on parallel computers, we introduce a Schwarz preconditioned Krylov subspace method using two discretizations. More precisely speaking, the higher ord...
