A Parallel Incompressible Navier-Stokes Solver With a Parallel Multigrid Elliptic Kernal

The paper describes numerical algorithms and parallel implementations of a time-dependent, incompressible Navier-Stokes flow solver and a multigrid elliptic solver, which is also used as a computation kernal in the flow solver. The implemented solvers are numerically stable and computationally efficient, and they scale well to a large number of processors for problems with moderate granularity.

Highly parallel structured adaptive mesh refinement using parallel language-based approaches

Adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) calculations carried out on structured meshes play an exceedingly important role in several areas of science and engineering. A strategy for using Fortran 90 in an object-oriented fashion is presented. This permits AMR applications to be expressed in terms of familiar abstractions that are natural to the process of solving AMR hierarchies. The OpenMP features that are useful for parallel processing of AMR hierarchies in a load balanced fashion on multiprocessors is described.

Moment representation in the lattice Boltzmann method on massively parallel hardware

The widely-used lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) for computational fluid dynamics is highly scalable, but also significantly memory bandwidth-bound on current architectures. This paper presents a new regularized LBM implementation that reduces the memory footprint by only storing macroscopic, moment-based data. We show that the amount of data that must be stored in memory during a simulation is reduced by up to 47%. We also present a technique for cache-aware data re-utilization and show that optimizing cache utilization to limit data motion results in a similar improvement in time to solution. These new algorithms are implemented in the hemodynamics solver HARVEY and demonstrated using both idealized and realistic biological geometries. We develop a performance model for the moment representation algorithm and evaluate the performance on Summit.
