NVIDIA GPUs Accelerate Dassault Systèmes SIMULIA’s Abaqus/Standard FEA Solver
NVIDIA and SIMULIA, the Dassault Systèmes brand for Realistic Simulation, have collaborated to deliver the power of GPU computing for Abaqus customers. Available since Abaqus 6.11 release, NVIDIA GPU acceleration enables faster results for more efficient computation and job turnaround times, delivering more license utilization for the same investment. Performance studies by NVIDIA clearly demonstrate the performance/$ value of GPU computing. GPUs provide savings in time, costs, and free up CPU resources for other tasks. The new NVIDIA® Quadro® GV100 combines unprecedented double precision performance with 32 GB of high-bandwidth memory (HBM2), so users can conduct simulations during the design process and gather realistic multi-physics simulations faster than ever before. |
