Abstract :
The paper presents an overview of the PARASOL interface and its potential impact on facilitating transfer of technology from the academic researchers to the industrial end users. The PARASOL project aims at developing scalable direct and iterative solvers and testing them on real problems with respect to applicability and robustness in the industrial applications such as linear structural analysis (MSC/NASTRAN and SESAM), simulation of nonlinear forming and deformation processes (ARC3D and INDEED), and modeling of incompressible viscous flow (POLYFLOW)
