A Comprehensive Study on the Performance of Implicit LS-DYNA

This work addresses four aspects of Implicit LS-DYNA’s performance. First, Implicit LS-DYNA’s scalability is characterized on multicore platforms. Second, the effectiveness of the GPU implementation is examined. Third, the effect of memory configuration on performance and information on how to configure optimal memory size for a system are presented. And fourth, the performance of out-of-core solutions is discussed.
