Multi-Physics MpCCI

Fraunhofer-Institut für Algorithmen und Wissenschaftliches Rechnen SCAI

Technical Description

MpCCI's Product Development Strategy is entirely geared towards, and driven by, our customers; MpCCI 4.0 contains customer requested enhancements and individual development tasks, providing our customers with access to the very latest technology in multiphysics simulation.

The MpCCI Server System provides various important new features

  • New server engine
    • dramatically improved performance for neighborhood search and mapping
    • memory efficiency 
    • numerical enhanced shape function based interpolation methods
  • Server now just needs 1 CPU to couple parallel codes
  • Support for remeshing of coupling zones at runtime
  • Sub-cycling control for an improved convergence behavior and stability
  • Under-relaxation and ramping capabilities can be set per quantity to stabilize FSI calculationsAbaqus
  • Cross-dimension coupling 1D-3D between system simulation and mesh based CFD and FEM
  • New Visualizer for a online monitoring (even of batch jobs) and more insight into the running multi-physics simulation

New Code Adapters are available in MpCCI 4.0

  • MSC's new MD.Nastran has been adapted to MpCCI 4.0
  • The thermo-fluid system simulation software Flowmaster for 1D-3D couplings
