The Helmholtz equation arises in the study of various physical problems involving the propagation of waves, like electromagnetic radiation, seismology or acoustics. The goal of the project is to develop a Helmholtz solver that can accelerate high- frequency computations by at least one order of magnitude with respect to state-of-the art approaches. We propose to combine the following three ingredients to achieve a breakthrough in the solution of high-frequency Helmholtz problems:
1. Use a spectral finite element discretization on fully hexahedral meshes, both cartesian and non structured, for which AILU-type preconditioners can be efficiently applied on each subdomain of the geometry.
2. Develop a quasi-optimal DDM with a parallel sweeping-type preconditioner to allow for optimal convergence between the subdomains.
3. Implement the solver using a common kernel language to make the solver run on different devices (both GPU and CPU) using different thread programming interfaces (CUDA, OpenCL, and OpenMP).
