Parallel and explicit methods for the simulation of eddy current problems
Mathematics
Final Report Abstract
The project addressed methods for the accelerated simulation of eddy current problems using (semi-) explicit and parallel time integration methods. The challenge was to reduce the computational effort due to the time oversampling of explicit methods, which can only operate stably with small time step sizes. Selective update schemes for nonlinear material characteristics and the exterior space were developed, which already compensate for the main disadvantages due to oversampling. The explicit methods must additionally repeatedly solve the same system of equations with varying right-hand sides. For this purpose, Proper Orthogonal Decomposition as well as Subspace Projection Extrapolation techniques were proposed, which could significantly reduce the number of iterations of iterative equation system solvers. The explicit Runge-Kutta-Chebyshev time integration method, whose stability region grows quadratically with the number of intermediate Runge-Kutta steps, has proven to be a well suitable explicit time integrator. This method combination already beats conventional implementations based on implicit methods. However, the newly developed parareal variants increase this advantage by at least one more order of magnitude.
