| PackageDescription | documentation for ASL
The Advanced Simulation Library (ASL) is a free and open source hardware
accelerated multiphysics simulation platform (and an extensible general
purpose tool for solving Partial Differential Equations).
.
Its computational engine is written in OpenCL and utilizes matrix-free
solution techniques which enable extraordinarily high performance,
memory efficiency and deployability on a variety of massively parallel
architectures, ranging from inexpensive FPGAs, DSPs and GPUs up to
heterogeneous clusters and supercomputers. The engine is hidden entirely
behind simple C++ classes, so that no OpenCL knowledge is required from
application programmers. Mesh-free, immersed boundary approach allows one
to move from CAD directly to simulation drastically reducing pre-processing
efforts and amount of potential errors.
.
ASL can be used to model various coupled physical and chemical phenomena and
employed in a multitude of fields: computational fluid dynamics, virtual
sensing, industrial process data validation and reconciliation, image-guided
surgery, computer-aided engineering, design space exploration,
crystallography, etc...
