Structure-Fluid Coupled Analysis Using PC Cluster : Validation of Adventure Framework

Abstract

The authors are developing an advanced general-purpose computational mechanics system (ADVENTURE System) which can analyze a model of arbitrary shape with 10 to 100 million DOFs within 1 hour to 1 day using the fastest computer. In this project, the authors developed the framework of distributed CAE system for large scale problems and heterogeneous network topology (ADVENTURE Framework). To demonstrate fundamental performance of the framework, structure-fluid coupled analysis was performed.
