摘要: The paper describes the development of a powerful high performance Finite element computing framework in network small computers. A basic object oriented general purpose FE analysis code with frontal solver has been developed C++. CORBA used as platform for objects deployment client server environment. As mentioned earlier, C++ while both Java and clients have used. Different cases viz, .i) Simple client/server model ii) Multiple concurrent servers validated. distributed networked environment utilized parallelizing finite analysis. This presently implemented over cluster Intel workstations connected through switch, thereby offering very economical solution large problems. Substructuring use super-elements employed this parallelization. Each sub-server is responsible assembly elements, computation super stiffness, communication central low-level solution. Some initial results on are also reported.
