Comparison of Three Different Parallel Computation Methods for a Two-Dimensional Dam-Break Model

Three parallel methods (OpenMP, MPI, and OpenACC) are evaluated for the computation of a two-dimensional dam-break model using the explicit finite volume method. A dam-break event in the Pangtoupao flood storage area in China is selected as a case study to demonstrate the key technologies for implem...
