Adaptive Mesh Refinement Library

• FY06-07 Highlights
• Presentation at 7th World Congress on Applied
  Mechanics
• Presentation at 1st Intl. Symposium on Integrated
  Predictive Simulation for Earthquake and Tsunami
  Disaster
• Presentation at 2006 Fall AGU Meeting
• Ported modified software to Project Columbia

• Project Summary
• Add capability to software infrastructure for
  high performance modeling and data interpretation
  for InSAR science in addition to other
  application domains.
• Plans for Upcoming Year
• Support Zoltan Partitioner
• Support NASTRAN format
• Complete C-interface
• Add web-based training
• Support InSAR science modeling and validation

• Applications
• High performance and resolution modeling of Earth
  surface deformation, from to the earthquake
  cycle, for various regions of northern and
  southern California
• Fast mesh generation for complex models
• Science and engineering applications requiring
  support for millions of finite elements on high
  performance systems such as Project Columbia and
  large cluster computers
