Abstract

A variant of a nonlinear FETI-DP domain decomposition method is considered. It is combined with a parallel algebraic multigrid method (BoomerAMG) in a way which completely removes sparse direct solvers from the algorithm. Scalability to 524,288 MPI ranks is shown for linear elasticity and nonlinear hyperelasticity using more than half of the JUQUEEN supercomputer (JSC, Jülich; TOP500 rank: 11th).
