  • Fully-resolved LBM-DEM simulations of piping erosion during a suction bucket installation

    Arcrea HIMEJI 143-2, Kamiyacho, Himeji-City, Hyogo, Japan

    Join our Samuel kemmler for his talk at the 10th International Conference on Discrete Element Methods (DEM10) this summer in Himeji, Japan !

    Suction bucket foundations are a cost-efficient and environmentally sustainable method for installing offshore wind turbines, however, they can fail because of piping erosion, when fluidization of particles beneath the bucket wall tip causes a drop in suction pressure. Unfortunately, the mechanisms of piping erosion are insufficiently understood. Hence, a three-dimensional, fully-resolved coupled LBM-DEM simulation is employed to conduct an in-depth analysis of piping erosion to identify key influencing parameters and enhance understanding and optimisation of the installation process. Results from simulations executed on hundreds of GPUs on the LUMI supercomputer are presented, illustrating the method’s capability to tackle this complex challenge.

  • Introduction to the DLB Library and Measuring GPU performance

    Online

    In this webinar we’ll provide an overview of the DLB library and each one of its modules. For each module we’ll share its main features, how to use it, and some success stories. We’ll put special focus on the TALP module and its recent extension to provide GPU metrics when getting performance measurements.

  • Extreme-Scale High-Fidelity Computational Fluid Dynamics with Neko

    Online

    Neko is a portable framework for high-order spectral element-based simulations, mainly focusing on incompressible/compressible flow. In this webinar, CEEC’s own Niclas Jansson will provide an introduction to Neko and its capabilities, from installation to creating and running simulations. He will also focus especially on the major changes in features and functionalities, user interaction, and improvements made in the upcoming release of Neko v1.0. Join CEEC for a webinar on this 2023 ACM Gordon Bell prize finalist and get your start using Neko!

  • Performance Portability for Fortran CFD Software with GALÆXI

    Online

    With GPU acceleration now ubiquitous in HPC, porting existing simulation software to leverage GPUs is more important than ever. Although many GPU programming models exist, they often have limited or no support for Fortran, making porting existing Fortran scientific codes to multiple computing architectures an extra struggle. This webinar guides you through one solution of taking a Fortran CFD code and porting it to GPUs using CUDA/HIP C++. We will cover the basics of GPU hardware and programming through the example of the high-order discontinuous Galerkin spectral element CFD code GALÆXI, including the important design questions and porting requirements for researchers to consider when porting their own codes.
