Solving generalized eigenvalue problems for large scale fluid-structure computational models with mid-power computers

Abstract This article proposes a method for solving generalized eigenvalue problems on medium-power computers with a moderate memory in the particular context of studying fluid-structure systems with sloshing and capillarity. This research was performed following many RAM problems encountered when computing the modal characterization of the system studied. The methodology proposed is one solution to reduce RAM and time required for the computation, by using methods such as double projection or subspace iterations.
