suanPan --- An Open Source, Parallel and Heterogeneous Finite Element Analysis Framework

Chang, T. L. · Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research) · 2022

🧮 suanPan is a finite element method (FEM) simulation platform for applications in fields such as solid mechanics and civil/structural/seismic engineering. The name suanPan (in some places such as suffix it is also abbreviated as suPan) comes from the term Suan Pan (算盤), which is Chinese abacus. suanPan is written in modern high quality C++ code and is targeted to provide an efficient, concise, flexible and reliable FEM simulation platform.

Large-Scale Parallel Finite Element Analysis of the Stress Singular Problems

Noriyuki Kushida, Hiroshi Okuda, Genki YAGAWA · 10th International Conference on Nuclear Engineering, Volume 1 · 2002

In this paper, the convergence behavior of large-scale parallel finite element method for the stress singular problems was investigated. The convergence behavior of iterative solvers depends on the efficiency of the preconditioners. However, efficiency of preconditioners may be influenced by the domain decomposition that is necessary for parallel FEM. In this study the following results were obtained: Conjugate gradient method without preconditioning and the diagonal scaling preconditioned conjugate gradient method were not influenced by the domain decomposition as expected. symmetric successive over relaxation method preconditioned conjugate gradient method converged 6% faster as maximum if the stress singular area was contained in one sub-domain.

A Parallel Contact Algorithm for Finite Element Analysis of Shell Structures

James G. Malone, Nancy L. Johnson · SAE technical papers on CD-ROM/SAE technical paper series · 1992

<div class="htmlview paragraph">A parallel contact algorithm has been developed for nonlinear dynamic finite element analysis of shell structures. The contact algorithm accounts for sliding with friction. The contact algorithm has been designed to enable individual processors to dynamically build local contact domains during execution and to efficiently exchange data between processors as the contact problem evolves. The performance of the parallel contact algorithm has been studied by executing the program on 128 processors of a Symult Series 2010 distributed-memory multiprocessor computer: it has been found that computational load imbalance rather than interprocessor communication overhead is the primary obstacle to achieving high efficiency.</div>

Feasibility Study of Parallel Finite Element Analysis on Cluster-of-Clusters

Masae Muraoka, Hiroshi Okuda · Journal of Computational Science and Technology · 2009

With the rapid growth of WAN infrastructure and development of Grid middleware, it's become a realistic and attractive methodology to connect cluster machines on wide-area network for the execution of computation-demanding applications. Many existing parallel finite element (FE) applications have been, however, designed and developed with a single computing resource in mind, since such applications require frequent synchronization and communication among processes. There have been few FE applications that can exploit the distributed environment so far. In this study, we explore the feasibility of FE applications on the cluster-of-clusters. First, we classify FE applications into two types, tightly coupled applications (TCA) and loosely coupled applications (LCA) based on their communication pattern. A prototype of each application is implemented on the cluster-of-clusters. We perform numerical experiments executing TCA and LCA on both the cluster-of-clusters and a single cluster. Thorough these experiments, by comparing the performances and communication cost in each case, we evaluate the feasibility of FEA on the cluster-of-clusters.
