Parallel Simulation of a Fluid Flow by Means of the SPH Method: OpenMP vs. MPI Comparison

Abstract

The SPH method for simulating incompressible fluids is presented in this article. The background and principles of the SPH method are explained and its application to incompressible fluids simulations is discussed. The parallel implementation of the SPH simulation with OpenMP and MPI environments are demonstrated. Both models of parallel implementation are analyzed and discussed. The comparison of both models is performed and discussed, as well as their results.
