ABSTRACT

The laboratory aims at providing the knowledge and programming skills for the definition, implementation, and execution on HPC architectures of simulation SW. Beyond introductory examples, specific cases related to the analysis of complex multi-functional/multi-physics metamaterials and metastructures will be addressed also taking advantage of the HPC facilities hosted at the University of Trento.

 

COURSE CONTENT

  • Bash scripting introduction
  • Message Passing Interface (MPI)
  • Parallelization of explicit and implicit finite volume methods
  • Applications to multi-functional/multi-physics metamaterials and metastructures

 

TEACHING ACTIVITIES

The teaching activity includes SW exercises. The exam consists in the development and presentation of a project assignment.

Registration Procedure for EXTERNAL Students

Step 1: Register a "guest" type account (@guest.unitn.it)

  • Should you still not have a UniTN account, you have to register and log in with your SPID identity or CIE (electronic ID card). If you cannot use SPID or CIE, please create your own UniTN account.

Step 2: Enroll to a Single UniTN Course

  • Complete the online application through the dedicated webpage.
    In the application form (Section "Teaching Activities") put the following information:
    • Name of single class/teaching activity: Lab on HPC for Multi-Functional Metamaterials and Metastructures
    • Code of single class/teaching activity: M220_24
    • Degree course to which the teaching activity is associated: [M220] Master in Multifunctional Metamaterials and Metastructures
  • Once received the outcome of the application (1-3 days), login into ESSE3 with your "guest" account user-name and password. Then, pay the bulletin you find in Administrative Office – Payments.
