초록

비선형 외연 유한요소법에서 유한요소 병렬 처리 방안을 기술하고 코드에 구현하였다. 성능테스트 장비로 자체 구축한 520 개의 CPU를 갖는 리눅스 클러스터 슈퍼컴퓨터를 사용하였다. 대규모 모델 테스트 결과 256 개의 CPU 까지도 거의 이상적인 속도 증가를 보였다. 유한요소 계산시간 대비 통신시간 계산이 전체 성능에 미치는 영향도 검토하였다. 사용 프로세서가 증가할수록 상용코드의 병렬 성능 대비 더 좋은 성능을 보이는 것으로 나타났다.

A parallel computing strategy for finite element(FE) processing is described and implemented in nonlinear explicit FE code and its parallel performances are evaluated. A self-made linux-cluster supercomputer with 520 CPUs is used as a bench mark test bed. It is observed that speed-up is increased almost idealy even up to 256 CPUs for a large scale model. A communication over head and its effect on the parallel performance is also examined. Parallel performance is compare with the commercial code and developed code shows superior performance as the number of CPUs used are increased.
