Coupled mechanical/heat transfer simulation on MPP platforms using a finite element/linear solver interface

Conference ·
OSTI ID:7718

This report describes the implementation of a coupled mechanical /heat transfer simulation using a Finite Element Interface (FEI). The FE1 is an abstraction layer, which lies between the application code and its linear solver libraries, controlling the set-up and solution of the linear system arising in the finite element simulation. The performance and scalability of the ISIS++ FE1 is examined on the ASCI Red and Blue machines in the context of the ALE3D finite element simulation code.
