AN APPROACH TO EFFICIENT FEM SIMULATIONS ON GRAPHICS PROCESSING UNITS USING CUDA

The paper presents a highly efficient way of simulating the dynamic behavior of deformable objects by means of the finite element method (FEM) with computations performed on Graphics Processing Units (GPU). The presented implementation reduces bottlenecks related to memory accesses by grouping the n...
