A new open source framework for multiscale modeling of fibrous materials on heterogeneous supercomputers
This article presents MuMFiM, an open source application for multiscale modeling of fibrous materials on massively parallel computers. MuMFiM uses two scales to represent fibrous materials such as biological network materials (extracellular matrix, connective tissue, etc.). It is designed to make use of multiple levels of parallelism, including distributed parallelism of the macro and microscales as well as GPU accelerated data-parallelism of the microscale. Scaling results of the GPU accelerat…
