  • Development of a Coupling Approach for Multi-Physics Analyses of Fusion Reactors
    Development of a coupling approach for multi-physics analyses of fusion reactors Zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades eines Doktors der Ingenieurwissenschaften (Dr.-Ing.) bei der Fakultat¨ fur¨ Maschinenbau des Karlsruher Instituts fur¨ Technologie (KIT) genehmigte DISSERTATION von Yuefeng Qiu Datum der mundlichen¨ Prufung:¨ 12. 05. 2016 Referent: Prof. Dr. Stieglitz Korreferent: Prof. Dr. Moslang¨ This document is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution – Share Alike 3.0 DE License (CC BY-SA 3.0 DE): http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/de/ Abstract Fusion reactors are complex systems which are built of many complex components and sub-systems with irregular geometries. Their design involves many interdependent multi- physics problems which require coupled neutronic, thermal hydraulic (TH) and structural mechanical (SM) analyses. In this work, an integrated system has been developed to achieve coupled multi-physics analyses of complex fusion reactor systems. An advanced Monte Carlo (MC) modeling approach has been first developed for converting complex models to MC models with hybrid constructive solid and unstructured mesh geometries. A Tessellation-Tetrahedralization approach has been proposed for generating accurate and efficient unstructured meshes for describing MC models. For coupled multi-physics analyses, a high-fidelity coupling approach has been developed for the physical conservative data mapping from MC meshes to TH and SM meshes. Interfaces have been implemented for the MC codes MCNP5/6, TRIPOLI-4 and Geant4, the CFD codes CFX and Fluent, and the FE analysis platform ANSYS Workbench. Furthermore, these approaches have been implemented and integrated into the SALOME simulation platform. Therefore, a coupling system has been developed, which covers the entire analysis cycle of CAD design, neutronic, TH and SM analyses.

  • Official Precice Adapters for Standard Open-Source Solvers
    Proceedings of the 7th GACM Colloquium on Computational Mechanics for Young Scientists from Academia and Industry October 11-13, 2017 in Stuttgart, Germany Official preCICE Adapters for Standard Open-Source Solvers Benjamin Uekermann1*, Hans-Joachim Bungartz1, Lucia Cheung Yau1, Gerasimos Chourdakis1 and Alexander Rusch1 Micro Abstract To deal with the increasing complexity of today's multiphysics applications, the reuse of existing simulation software often becomes a necessity. Coupling to open-source simulation codes, in particular, is a time-efficient way to tackle new applications. The open-source coupling library preCICE enables such coupling in a minimally-invasive way. In this contribution, we give an overview on ready-to-use preCICE adapters for standard open-source solvers, namely CalculiX, Code Aster, OpenFOAM, and SU2. 1Department of Informatics, Technical University of Munich, Garching, Germany *Corresponding author: [email protected] Introduction The preCICE library [1] allows to couple existing simulation software to overall multi-physics simulations in a flexible way at run-time. To this end, preCICE offers methods for equation coupling, such as quasi-Newton acceleration schemes, methods for data mapping, such as radial- basis function interpolation, and fully parallel communication means, based on either MPI or TCP/IP. preCICE is implemented in C++, but offers an API in most standard scientific computing languages. The software is actively developed at the Technical University of Munich and the University of Stuttgart and is published under the free LGPL license on GitHub (http://www.precice.org, https://github.com/precice). A recent article [8] summarizes the development of preCICE over the last ten years for a general audience.

  • A Three-Dimensional Finite Element Mesh Generator with Built-In Pre- and Post-Processing Facilities

Gmsh: a three-dimensional finite element mesh generator with built-in pre- and post-processing facilities Christophe Geuzaine1, Jean-Fran¸cois Remacle2∗ 1 Universit´ede Li`ege,Department of Electrical Engineering And Computer Science, Montefiore Institute, Li`ege, Belgium. 2 Universite´ catholique de Louvain, Institute for Mechanical, Materials and Civil Engineering, Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium SUMMARY Gmsh is an open-source three-dimensional finite element grid generator with a build-in CAD engine and post-processor. Its design goal is to provide a fast, light and user-friendly meshing tool with parametric input and advanced visualization capabilities. This paper presents the overall philosophy, the main design choices and some of the original algorithms implemented in Gmsh. Copyright c 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. key words: Computer Aided Design, Mesh generation, Post-Processing, Finite Element Method, Open Source Software 1. Introduction When we started the Gmsh project in the summer of 1996, our goal was to develop a fast, light and user-friendly interactive software tool to easily create geometries and meshes that could be used in our three-dimensional finite element solvers [8], and then visualize and export the computational results with maximum flexibility. At the time, no open-source software combining a CAD engine, a mesh generator and a post-processor was available: the existing integrated tools were expensive commercial packages [41], and the freeware or shareware tools were limited to either CAD [29], two-dimensional mesh generation [44], three-dimensional mesh generation [53, 21, 30], or post-processing [31].

Within this framework of modular smart factories, cyber-physical systems monitor physical processes creating a virtual copy of the physical world and making decentralized decisions. This article presents a review of the literature on virtual methods of computer-aided manufacturing processes. Numerical modeling is used to predict stress and temperature distribution, springback, material flow, and prediction of phase transformations, as well as for determining forming forces and the locations of potential wrinkling and cracking. The scope of the review has been limited to the last ten years, with an emphasis on the current state of knowledge. Intelligent production driven by the concept of Industry 4.0 and the demand for high-quality equipment in the aerospace and automotive industries forces the development of manufacturing techniques to progress towards intelligent manufacturing and ecological production. Multi-scale approaches that tend to move from macro- to micro- parameters become very important in numerical optimization programs.

  • HPC Cloud-Based Modeling and Simulation Platform for HEMOS Software
    International Journal of u- and e- Service, Science and Technology Vol.10, No.8 (2017), pp.37-48 http://dx.doi.org/10.14257/ijunesst.2017.10.8.04 HEMOS-Cloud: HPC Cloud-based Modeling and Simulation Platform for HEMOS Software Myungil Kim1, Dongwoo Seo1*, Daeyong Jung1 and Jaesung Kim1 1Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information 245 Daehak-ro, Yuseong-gu, Daejoen, 34141, Korea {mikim, seodongwoo, daeyongjung, jaesungkim}@kisti.re.kr Abstract Modeling & Simulation (M&S) is a technology that replaces the physical production and experimentation of products with virtual production (modeling) and engineering analysis (simulation). M&S can greatly reduce the time and cost it takes to develop new products and thus increasing the manufacturing company's competitiveness. This paper describes the construction of M&S platform based on High Performance Computer (HPC) cloud. High performance Engineering MOdeling & Simulation (HEMOS) is a M&S software developed to support structural analysis and fluid analysis. Developed using open-source software, it supports all M&S processes from pre-processing to analysis and post-processing. HEMOS is developed to simplify shapes, create mesh, and detect contact surfaces at the pre-processing. It uses CalculiX and OpenFOAM, both open-source solvers, to analysis structural and fluid problems without license restrictions at the analysis while OpenGL and Paraview were used to implement post-processing. HEMOS is provided through HEMOS-Cloud which was built based on Xen server with 532 CPU cores and is connected with KISTI’s supercomputer of about 300TF. This HPC Cloud-based modeling and simulation platform that services HEMOS can increase user accessibility and reduce costs.
