NSF CSSI Project
Optimizing the communication between nodes is key to achieving good performance in scientific applications but a daunting task given the scale of execution. The HPGeoC team is collaborating with OSU, UTK and University of Oregon to co-design MVAPICH2 and TAU libraries with applications to improve time to solution in next generation HPC architectures through intelligent performance engineering - using emerging communication primitives. This research is funded by NSF Office of Advanced Cyberinfrastructure CSSI program. NSF CSSI info
4-Hz Iwan-type Dynamic Modeling
We carried out an advanced nonlinear dynamic modeling on TACC Frontera during Texascale Days in 2023. The dynamic simulation was the M7.8 ShakeOut scenario with 10 yield surfaces using Iwan nonlinear model using a resolution of 25m and minimum shear-wave velocity of 500 m/s. Rupture propagation is simulated from SE to NW to obtain maximum excitation of the waveguide due interconnected basin in the northern Los Angeles area.

CyberShake SGT Calculation
AWP-ODC is a highly scalable, parallel finite-difference application developed at SDSC and SDSU to simulate dynamic rupture and wave propagation that occurs during an earthquake. We have developed strain Green's tensor (SGT) creation and seismogram synthesis. The GPU-based SGT calculations are recently benchmarked with 32.6 Petaflop/s sustained performance on OLCF Frontier. This improved computational efficiency in the waveform modeling of CyberShake research will accelerate the process of creating a California state-wide physics-based seismic hazard map. More info
San Andreas Fault Zone Plasticity
Producing realistic seismograms at high frequencies will require several improvements in anelastic wave propagation engines, including the implementation of nonlinear material behavior. This project supports the development of nonlinear material behavior in both the CPU- and GPU-based wave propagation solvers. Simulations of the ShakeOut earthquake scenario have shown that nonlinearity could reduce the earlier predictions of long period (0 - 0.5 Hz) ground motions in the Los Angeles basin by 30-70.

Completed Projects
SCEC M8 Simulation
M8 is the largest earthquake simulation ever conducted, a collaborative effort led by SCEC and requiring collaboration of more than 30 seismologists and computational scientists, supported by DOE INCITE allocation award. It presented tremendous computational and I/O challenges. The simulation was conducted on NCCS Jaguar, a ACM Gordon Bell finalist at Supercomputing'10. More info
GPU Acceleration Project
HPGeoC has developed a hybrid CUDA MPI paradigm with AWP-ODC code that achieved 2.3 Pflop/s sustained performance and enabled a rough fault 0-10Hz modeling simulation on ORNL Titan. This code is also used to study the effects of nonlinearity on surface waves during large quakes on the San Andreas fault. More info
Topology-aware Communication and Scheduling (HECURA-2)
Topology-aware MPI communication, mapping, and scheduling is a new research area. This is to take advantage of the topological path to communication optimization  (either point-to-point or collective). We are participating in a joint project between OSU, TACC and SDSC as a case study in how to implement new topology-aware MPI software at the application level.
Petascale Inference in Earthquake System Science (PetaShake-2)
