    Type of applications: Scattering matrix computation
    Description of application: Simulations of PDEs typically involve computing the solution on every element of a large discretization basis set, even though oftentimes only a much smaller number of projections (described by a fat matrix C) is needed. When multiple right-hand sides are of interest (given by a tall matrix B), the LU factors of the PDE matrix A are typically applied repeatedly onto each right-hand side, which becomes the speed bottleneck when the number of right-hand sides is large. Furthermore, storage of the LU factors becomes the memory bottleneck. Problems of this type (computing the generalized scattering matrix) require C*inv(A)*B. Here, we build an augmented matrix K = [A, B; C, 0] and obtain the scattering matrix by computing the Schur complement of K instead, using MUMPS. This "augmented partial factorization" approach avoids the unnecessary full-basis solutions and the slow forward/backward substitutions. We apply it to the simulation of large-scale multi-channel optical systems and realize over three-orders-of-magnitude speed-up as well as memory usage reduction.

    Type of applications: Matrix eigenvalue problems, computational materials physics
    Description of application: Solving a large sparse symmetric definite (or Hermitian) generalized eigenproblem is a fundamental computational task in electronic structure calculations of materials. Among all eigenvalues (which are real) and eigenvectors of the eigenproblem, the k-th (smallest) eigenvalue and its corresponding eigenvector are of practical interest because they are directly related to several properties of materials. For efficient computation of the k-th eigenpair with validation of its index, we propose an inertia-based algorithm in which fast and robust sparse LDL factorization plays a key role.

    Type of applications: Analysis of 3D general anisotropic materials using boundary element method
    Description of application This work presents the analysis of three-dimensional polycrystals in the microscale with different lattice structures, hexagonal closed package (HCP) and face centered cubic (FCC). In these materials, the grained medium is considered as a continuum elastic body. An artificial polycrystalline structure is modeled using the Voronoi tessellation to generate random morphological microstructures. To reproduce the stochastic effects, arbitrary crystalline orientations are distributed over the structure. The boundary element method (BEM) is used to obtain the static displacement and traction fields, with a fundamental solution for 3D general anisotropic materials based on double Fourier's series. The macroscopic effective elastic properties are evaluated using the average homogenization technique and compared to the reference values through convergence statistical analysis. Explicit schemes are presented in order to improve the computational load and decrease the time required by the main BEM application implemented on distributed memory architectures. Numerical examples are presented showing the convergence of the results and comparisons of anisotropy level between these FCC and HCP materials using a recently proposed anisotropy factor.

    Type of applications: Quantum transport
    Description of application: We calculate transport through graphene nanoribbons in the presence of disorder. Inversions of the Hamiltonian to obtain the Green's function G of the problem are done using the MUMPS package. Using G, the transport properties of the nanoribbon can be calculated. Using a combination of direct inversion of individual building blocks, and combining these building blocks using Dyson's equation, we can simulate ribbons with several micrometers in length (corresponding up to ten million carbon atoms).

    Type of application: biology, cell mechanics
    Description of application: This paper stands for a concept of coupling between agent modeling and stress analysis valid for a tissue. The stress analysis of evolving tissue is underestimated in previous studies. The experimental observations and numerical simulations of stress development in a single cell and in particular, in a growing tissue are still rare in the literature. We use a tensegrity model for a single cell that serves for stress evaluation in a growing tissue. We propose to couple the mechanical modeling with the agent one using a staggered scheme for two exemplary scenarios. The first example is devoted to scratching of the epithelium, and the second one to the pins and slits. We observe the systems sensitivities with respect to the selected groups of design parameters. The groups of parameters have been associated with clusters of cells. We have found that the sensitivities may be used for comparing the complex structures of the tissue.

    Type of application: Linear Stability Analysis for Viscoelastic and Newtonian Fluids
    Description of application: Accurate prediction of instabilities in viscoelastic flows presents one of the most challenging problems in non-Newtonian fluid mechanics, and has a crucial importance for polymer processing, where output quality constraints require that operating conditions should be maintained in the stable flow regime. Therefore, the flow instabilities are the primary constraint for the processing speed in many industrial polymer forming processes such as extrusion, wire coating, blow molding, sheet-formation, etc. In our project, we have developed an unstructured finite volume method for analysis of the stability of two-dimensional steady non-Newtonian fluid flows to small amplitude three-dimensional perturbations. A semi-staggered dilation-free finite volume discretization with Newton s method is used to compute steady base flows. The linear stability problem is treated as a generalized eigenvalue problem (GEVP) in which the rightmost eigenvalue determines the stability of the base flow. However, the resulting system of linear equations is highly ill-conditioned and the classical preconditoned iterative methods fail to converge. The MUMPS solver allows us to solve these badly conditioned linear system of huge size (several million of unknowns). This allows us to make direct comparison between the numerical and experimental results.

    Description of application: The goal of this project is to simulate a variety of resistivity logging instruments with arbitrary sources in deviated wells for the assessment and identification of electrical properties of the subsurface rock formation. Logging instruments include induction instruments with detailed geometrical reconstruction of the mandrel, and normal/laterolog instruments.

    Description of application: Linearized Euler equations formulated in frequency domain are discretized to high order accuracy on structured meshes, and the resulting linear system of equations is solved directly in parallel using the sparse solver MUMPS. These equations coupled with appropriate source definitions in duct inlets of turbofan engine nozzle configurations allow us to predict sound propagation and radiation through them.
