Highly scalable multigrid algorithm for particle simulation
Matthias Bolten · PAMM · 2010
Abstract We present a highly scalable method for the calculation of effects due to the Coulomb potential in atomistic systems. The method is based on a mathematical consistent formulation of the Coulomb problem in terms of the solution of a special Poisson equation. For the solution of these PDE a multigrid method is used. The whole method is parallelized using domain splitting and shows a very good strong scaling behavior. (© 2010 Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
