• 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.

  • Enabling mixed-precision with VerifiCarlo: Sharing CEEC experience

    Join our own Roman Iakymchuk, Umeå University on behalf of CEEC, and Pablo de Oliveira Castro, Université Paris-Saclay UVSQ, for our next webinar on mixed precision and VerifiCarlo!

    In this webinar, we will introduce Verificarlo, showcase its backends for numerical bug detection and mixed-precision analysis, and present a success story highlighting the road from analysis of codes with Verificarlo to reliable mixed-precision codes.

  • Calibration of Analytical Suction Bucket Installation Models Using Grain-Scale LBM-DEM Simulations

    Suction bucket foundations offer significant advantages for offshore wind applications, enabling fast and cost-efficient installation. However, installation failures due to piping erosion remain a critical challenge, particularly in loose or highly permeable seabeds. Understanding the interplay between seepage flow, soil properties, and foundation geometry during suction installation is essential for improving design guidelines and installation strategies. In this talk, Samuel Kemmler presents results that illustrate how fully resolved LBM-DEM modeling can complement experimental and field studies, providing a powerful tool for developing more robust suction bucket installation strategies in challenging seabed conditions.
