A chapter in High Performance Computing in Science and Engineering ’99, 2000, pp 401-401 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract In this chapter, a selection of engineering applications from structural mechanics and electrical engineering are presented which currently get resources on the HPC platforms at HLRS. While in the past high-end workstations were in most cases sufficient to perform the necessary computations in an appropriate time, today’s problems are becoming more and more complex, taking several weeks or even months of CPU time on a single processor. Both engineering areas are not traditional fields for supercomputer usage. Even so, they have evolved as very interesting fields for the use of high performance computers over the last couple of years, and some research groups have made significant effort to improve their codes. Algorithm development as well as programming methods have been targeted to parallel computing, and today some encouraging results from that work can be presented here.
