ABSTRACT: In this paper a new framework PMF algorithms is presented allowing an ecient execution on SMP compute nodes. This paper focuses on the global architecture of the framework, on an unique parallel data structure for mesh object management, and on basic and common algorithms for subtasks of a meshing method.

ABSTRACT: Since the numerical computation of complex three dimensional processes is possible in a reasonable time, there is an increasing demand for flexible and e#cient visualization tool kits. Many tools deal with the representation of scalar data and vector fields. All of them try to reflect realistic impressions of the simulated processes, e.g. natural science problems like fluid flow. In this paper we present a prototype visualization tool, called padviz, which is part of the parallel finite element framework padfem2. We demonstrate di#erent kinds of visualization techniques for fluid flow problems. This comprises the representation of vector fields using glyphs, the characterization of the fluid behavior with streamlines, mapping of scalar data on cutting planes and the particle tracing methods for instationary processes. Several example images are presented to illustrate the characteristics of these di#erent techniques.

ABSTRACT: In this paper a new MPI-based framework padfem2 for nite elements methods (FEM) is presented allowing an ecient execution of FEM applications on clusters with SMP nodes. This paper focuses on the global architecture and on an unique parallel data structure for highperformance object management on structured and unstructured grids.

ABSTRACT: In this paper we consider a finite element algorithm solving the three dimensional Navier-Stokes equation using the method of characteristics. The algorithm is based on a splitting scheme using a characteristic pressure correction method. It's well known, that the most expensive part of the characteristic integration scheme consists of the search for the volume that contains the foot of a given characteristic. The present paper considers different techniques for solving this problem and presents a new, efficient formulation of a search algorithm. This algorithm has been implemented based on the parallel data structure provided by the finite element framework padfem2. We present the results that we have obtained applying this algorithm to two well studied flow problems. Furthermore, we show the efficiency of the splitting scheme computed on a massive parallel cluster system.
