Abstract
Abstract
In order to seek a refined model analysis software platform that can balance both the computational accuracy and computational efficiency, a CPU-GPU heterogeneous platform based on a nonlinear parallel algorithm is developed. The modular design method is adopted to complete the architecture construction of structural nonlinear analysis software, clarify the basic analysis steps of nonlinear finite element problems, so as to determine the structure of the software system, conduct module division, and clarify the function, interface, and call relationship of each module. The results show that when the number of model layers is 10, the GPU is 210.5/s and the CPU is 1073.2/s, and the computational time of the GPU is significantly better, with an acceleration ratio of 5.1. For all the models, the GPU calculation time is much less than that of the CPU, and when the number of model degrees of freedom increases, the acceleration effect of the GPU becomes more obvious. Therefore, the CPU-GPU heterogeneous platform can more accurately describe the nonlinear behavior in the complex stress states of the shear walls, and is computationally efficient.
