Parallel Industrial Fluid Dynamics and Structural Mechanics Codes

The European Commission has promoted European industry through the Europort initiative (within the ESPRIT III programme) by partially funding the porting of 38 industrially relevant codes to parallel computers. The goal was to demonstrate the benefit and cost-effectiveness of such systems at large and foster their industrial use. Europort has finished end of February 1996 and this paper presents an overview on results in the areas of fluid dynamics and structural mechanics which were treated in the subproject Europort-1.
