3.3 Thread parallel element and contact search calculations for transient fidelity dynamic analyses

Product: Abaqus/Standard  

Benefits: Thread-parallel execution of additional calculations provides improved performance for many dynamic analyses.

Description: Dynamic analyses with transient fidelity application settings now execute element and contact search calculations with thread-based parallelization among processors of a compute node, which is similar to the existing behavior for moderate dissipation and quasi-static application settings. In previous Abaqus releases these calculations were performed on only one processor per compute node.
