Abstract

The invention provides a GPU and distributed computing-based earthquake damage analysis method for a high-rise building group, and belongs to the technical field of civil engineering disaster prevention and reduction. The method comprises two parts including GPU-based linear equation solving and a dynamic load balancing policy. The linear equation solving is a most time-consuming part in earthquake damage analysis. By utilizing a parallel computing advantage of a GPU, a GPU-based linear equation set solving algorithm is proposed for earthquake damage analysis of a single high-rise building, and algorithm development is performed by virtue of an open source earthquake damage analysis platform OpenSees to realize parallel acceleration of high-rise building individual analysis; and based on this, the dynamic load balancing policy suitable for the high-rise building group is proposed, different high-rise building individual computing tasks are reasonably allocated to different GPUs, and distributed computing of the high-rise building group is realized by utilizing a GPU cluster. 50 high-rise buildings are taken as objects, and the GPU-based distributed computing efficiency is improvedby 52 times in comparison with the single-machine efficiency. A high-performance computing means is provided for the earthquake damage analysis of the high-rise building group.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of disaster prevention and reduction in civil engineering, in particular to a method for analyzing earthquake damage of high-rise building groups based on GPU and distributed computing. Background technique [0002] High-rise buildings are highly concentrated areas of people and property, and will also become a city's business card, such as Beijing's Guomao area, which has an extremely important status and value for the entire city, and its importance for disaster prevention is self-evident. However, among the 660 cities in the country, 74.5% are located in the earthquake zone, and about half of the cities are located in areas with a basic intensity of 7 degrees and above. Therefore, earthquake is an important natural disaster threat to high-rise buildings. It is very necessary to analyze the earthquake damage of high-rise buildings to provide an important basis for emergency management and disaster prevent...
