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 resulted in 6.5x speedup on XK7 compared to XE6, this improved computational efficency in the waveform modeling of CyberShake research will save hundreds of millions of processor-core hours to create a California state-wide physics-based seismic hazard map.

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. An Iwan implementation paper is recently accepted to BSSA. [https://frontera-portal.tacc.utexas.edu/user-meeting/2023/ More info]

NSF CSA Project

The HPGeoC applications are selected as an early science project for NSF Leadership Class Computing Facility (LCCF), funded through NSF's Characteristic Science Applications (CSA) program. The project is to support the development of state-of-the-art earthquake modeling capabilities towards exascale, by porting and co-designing software on future LCCF systems for machine-specific performance efficiencies. Horizon to be deployed end 2025 will be ten-fold or more time-to-solution performance improvement over Frontera, the current NSF leadership system. More info

Completed Projects

M8.jpg

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

Hecura-2.jpg

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.

Petasha-3.jpg

Petascale Cyberfacility for Physics-based Seismic Hazard Analysis (PetaSHA-3)

The SCEC PetaSHA-3 project is sponsored by NSF to provide society with better predictions of earthquake hazards. This project will provide the high- performance computing required to achieve the objectives for earthquake source physics and ground motion prediction outlined in the SCEC3 (2007-2012) research plan.

Fault Tolerance Project

Current checkpoint/restart approach may introduce an unacceptable amount of overhead into some file systems. In collaboration with CSM, we have developed a fault tolerance framework in which the survival application processes will adapt itself to failures. In collaborating with ORNL, we are integrating ADIOS to scale checkpointing up on Lustre file system. More info
