Abstract

This paper compares three alternative numerical algorithms applied to a nonlinear metal cutting problem. One algorithm is based on an explicit method and the other two are implicit. Domain decomposition (DD) is used to break the original domain into subdomains, each containing a properly connected, well-formulated and continuous subproblem. The serial version of the explicit algorithm is implemented in FORTRAN and its parallel version uses MPI (Message Passing Interface) calls. One implicit algorithm is implemented by coupling the state-of-the-art PETSc (Portable, Extensible Toolkit for Scientific Computation) software with in-house software in order to solve the subproblems. The second implicit algorithm is implemented completely within PETSc. PETSc uses MPI as the underlying communication library. Finally, a 2D example is used to test the algorithms and various comparisons are made.
