Parallel Two-Level Overlapping Schwarz Methods in Fluid-Structure Interaction

Part of the Lecture Notes in Computational Science and Engineering book series (LNCSE,volume 112)

Abstract

Parallel overlapping Schwarz preconditioners are considered and applied to the structural block in monolithic fluid-structure interaction (FSI). The two-level overlapping Schwarz method uses a coarse level based on energy minimizing functions. Linear elastic as well as nonlinear, anisotropic hyperelastic structural models are considered in an FSI problem of a pressure wave in a tube. Using our recent parallel implementation of a two-level overlapping Schwarz preconditioner based on the Trilinos library, the total computation time of our FSI benchmark problem was reduced by more than a factor of two compared to the algebraic one-level overlapping Schwarz method used previously. Finally, also strong scalability for our FSI problem is shown for up to 512 processor cores.
