Harnessing the power of modern multi-GPU architectures, we present a massively parallel simulation system based on the Material Point Method (MPM) for simulating physical behaviors of materials ...undergoing complex topological changes, self-collision, and large deformations. Our system makes three critical contributions. First, we introduce a new particle data structure that promotes coalesced memory access patterns on the GPU and eliminates the need for complex atomic operations on the memory hierarchy when writing particle data to the grid. Second, we propose a kernel fusion approach using a new Grid-to-Particles-to-Grid (G2P2G) scheme, which efficiently reduces GPU kernel launches, improves latency, and significantly reduces the amount of global memory needed to store particle data. Finally, we introduce optimized algorithmic designs that allow for efficient sparse grids in a shared memory context, enabling us to best utilize modern multi-GPU computational platforms for hybrid Lagrangian-Eulerian computational patterns. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our method with extensive benchmarks, evaluations, and dynamic simulations with elastoplasticity, granular media, and fluid dynamics. In comparisons against an open-source and heavily optimized CPU-based MPM codebase Fang et al. 2019 on an elastic sphere colliding scene with particle counts ranging from 5 to 40 million, our GPU MPM achieves over 100x per-time-step speedup on a workstation with an Intel 8086K CPU and a single Quadro P6000 GPU, exposing exciting possibilities for future MPM simulations in computer graphics and computational science. Moreover, compared to the state-of-the-art GPU MPM method Hu et al. 2019a, we not only achieve 2x acceleration on a single GPU but our kernel fusion strategy and Array-of-Structs-of-Array (AoSoA) data structure design also generalizes to multi-GPU systems. Our multi-GPU MPM exhibits near-perfect weak and strong scaling with 4 GPUs, enabling performant and large-scale simulations on a 10243 grid with close to 100 million particles with less than 4 minutes per frame on a single 4-GPU workstation and 134 million particles with less than 1 minute per frame on an 8-GPU workstation.

An analytic expression for the scalar quasinormal modes of generic, spinning Kerr−AdS5 black holes was previously proposed by the authors J. High Energy Phys. 08 (2017) 094, in terms of ...transcendental equations involving the Painlevé VI (PVI) τ function. In this work, we carry out a numerical investigation of the modes for generic rotation parameters, comparing implementations of expansions for the PVI τ function in terms of both conformal blocks (Nekrasov functions) and Fredholm determinants. We compare the results with standard numerical methods for the subcase of Schwarzschild black holes. We then derive asymptotic formulas for the angular eigenvalues and the quasinormal modes in the small black hole limit for generic scalar mass and discuss, both numerically and analytically, the appearance of superradiant modes.

Abstract
In this work we study some characteristics of growth functions of the logistic type. The standard logistic function and the 2-logistic growth function are solutions of ordinary differential ...equations derived from the perspective of reaction network theory. These solutions are compared in terms of their shape. We are interested in the new 2-logistic probability distribution and its characteristics. Using the tools of reaction network theory and numerical methods we derive some properties of this distribution.
In this article, amplitude, and vibrational characteristics of a rotating fiber metal laminated microdisk are presented. The current microstructure is modeled as a flexible microdisk surrounded by ...the two-parameter viscoelastic foundation. The centrifugal and coriolis effects due to the rotation are considered. The strains and stresses can be determined via the third-order shear deformable theory. For accessing to size-effects, the nonlocal strain gradient theory is used. The boundary conditions are derived through governing equations of the laminated rotating microdisk using an energy method known as Hamilton's principle and finally are solved using a numerical method based generalized differential quadrature method.
Summary
In the present paper, structure‐preserving numerical methods for finite strain thermoelastodynamics are proposed. The underlying variational formulation is based on the general equation for ...nonequilibrium reversible‐irreversible coupling (GENERIC) formalism and makes possible the free choice of the thermodynamic state variable. The notion “GENERIC consistent space discretization” is introduced, which facilitates the design of Energy‐Momentum‐Entropy (EME) consistent schemes. In particular, three alternative EME schemes result from the present approach. These schemes are directly linked to the respective choice of the thermodynamic variable. Numerical examples confirm the structure‐preserving properties of the newly developed EME schemes, which exhibit superior numerical stability.
Over the last decade impressive progress has been made in the theoretical understanding of transport properties of clean, one-dimensional quantum lattice systems. Many physically relevant models in ...one dimension are Bethe-ansatz integrable, including the anisotropic spin- 1 / 2 Heisenberg (also called the spin- 1 / 2 XXZ chain) and the Fermi-Hubbard model. Nevertheless, practical computations of correlation functions and transport coefficients pose hard problems from both the conceptual and technical points of view. Only because of recent progress in the theory of integrable systems, on the one hand, and the development of numerical methods, on the other hand, has it become possible to compute their finite-temperature and nonequilibrium transport properties quantitatively. Owing to the discovery of a novel class of quasilocal conserved quantities, there is now a qualitative understanding of the origin of ballistic finite-temperature transport, and even diffusive or superdiffusive subleading corrections, in integrable lattice models. The current understanding of transport in one-dimensional lattice models, in particular, in the paradigmatic example of the spin- 1 / 2 XXZ and Fermi-Hubbard models, is reviewed, as well as state-of-the-art theoretical methods, including both analytical and computational approaches. Among other novel techniques, matrix-product-state-based simulation methods, dynamical typicality, and, in particular, generalized hydrodynamics are covered. The close and fruitful connection between theoretical models and recent experiments is discussed, with examples given from the realms of both quantum magnets and ultracold quantum gases in optical lattices.
