Effects of mesh loop modes on performance of unstructured finite volume GPU simulations

Abstract In unstructured finite volume method, loop on different mesh components such as cells, faces, nodes, etc is used widely for the traversal of data. Mesh loop results in direct or indirect data access that affects data locality significantly. By loop on mesh, many threads accessing the same d...
