STREAmS-2.0: Supersonic turbulent accelerated Navier-Stokes solver version 2.0

We present STREAmS-2.0, an updated version of the flow solver STREAmS, first introduced in Bernardini et al. (2021) [1]. STREAmS-2.0 has an object-oriented design which separates the physics equations from the specific back-end, making the code more suitable for future expansions, such as porting to novel computing architectures or...

STREAmS: A high-fidelity accelerated solver for direct numerical simulation of compressible turbulent flows

We present STREAmS, an in-house high-fidelity solver for direct numerical simulations (DNS) of canonical compressible wall-bounded flows, namely turbulent plane channel, zero-pressure gradient turbulent boundary layer and supersonic oblique shock-wave/boundary layer interaction. The solver incorporates state-of-the-art numerical algorithms,...

Accelerating a geometrical approximated PCA algorithm using AVX2 and CUDA

Remote sensing data has known an explosive growth in the past decade. This has led to the need for efficient dimensionality reduction techniques, mathematical procedures that transform the high-dimensional data into a meaningful, reduced representation. Projection Pursuit (PP) based algorithms were shown to be efficient solutions for...

Performance modeling and optimization of sparse matrix-vector multiplication on NVIDIA CUDA platform

In this article, we discuss the performance modeling and optimization of Sparse Matrix-Vector Multiplication (SpMV) on NVIDIA GPUs using CUDA. SpMV has a very low computation-data ratio and its performance is mainly bound by the memory bandwidth. We propose optimization of SpMV based on ELLPACK from two aspects: (1) enhanced performance for the...
