[LA-SiGMA-TESC] TESC (Technologies of Extreme Scale Computing) seminar on Thursday (10/22)

[Wei P Feinstein]

Dear all,


Technologies of Extreme Scale Computing (TESC) group will have a seminar this Thursday (10/22) at 12:00pm-1:00pm in 1034 Digital Media Center.  TESC seminars are intended to provide a platform  for exchanging ideas and establishing collaborations, especially in scientific code development and big data analytics using HPC.  We are grateful for the support of the High Performance Computing, Computational Biology, LA-SiGMA, Center for Computation and Technology, and Louisiana Optical Network Initiative.


Patrick Diehl is a research assistant and PhD candidate at the Institute for Numerical Simulation at the University of
Bonn, Germany. He is going to present his research entitled "Simulation of crack and fracture in solids with a focus on HPC".

Abstract:


Nowadays ceramic materials are of great importance in airplanes or cars. The bond-based Peridynamic theory, a non-local generalization of continuum mechanics. We present the verification against the classical theory to validate the Softening material model. For comparison with applications the Edge-On impact (EOI) experiment is a feasible benchmark for simulation of impact damage and wave propagation. A second benchmark is the critical traction for Mode I crack opening. To obtain reliable results for these benchmarks, with a discretization by a collocation by space approach, leads to large particle densities.  Patrick will give  an overview of the governing equations and the used material models, the talk will be emphasized on how methods of computer science and HPC are used to make simulations with large particle densities applicable.



PIZZA AND DRINK WILL BE PROVIDED.

Presentation time: 12:00PM~1:00PM CST
Location: 1034 Digital Media Center
