| Abstract Scope |
Leveraging computational resources efficiently in the numerical solution of phase-field equations is crucial when carrying out accurate 3D simulations of increasingly complex models with coupled physics. Therefore, improved performance, extensibility, and maintainability were the main objectives for the latest major update (version 3.0) of the PRISMS-PF open-source framework. We discuss some of the salient performance improvements in this new version, including GPU-support, a multigrid preconditioner, and additional internal optimizations. Other significant new features include implicit time-integration capability, higher order time-integration schemes, improved grain remapping, automated data/metadata collection, and new integration tools with the Materials Commons repository. In addition, we discuss some of the recent publicly available PRISMS-PF applications, including solidification coupled with fluid flow, static recrystallization, crack propagation, and an integrated AI-enabled Model BuilDER (AMMBER) tool to that allows for automated parametrization of phase-field models for microstructure evolution. |
