MURPHY--A SCALABLE MULTIRESOLUTION FRAMEWORK FOR SCIENTIFIC COMPUTING ON 3D BLOCK-STRUCTURED COLLOCATED GRIDS.

We present the derivation, implementation, and analysis of a multiresolution adaptive grid framework for numerical simulations on octree-based three-dimensional block-structured collocated grids with distributed computational architectures. Our approach provides a consistent handling of nonlifted and lifted interpolating wavelets of arbitrary order demonstrated using second-, fourth-, and sixth-order wavelets, combined with standard finite-difference-based discretization op-erators. We first validate that the wavelet family used provides strict and explicit error control when coarsening the grid, and show that lifting wavelets increase the grid compression rate while conserving discrete moments across levels. Further, we demonstrate that high-order PDE discretization schemes combined with sufficiently high-order wavelets retain the expected convergence order even at resolution jumps. We then simulate the advection of a scalar to analyze convergence for the temporal evolution of a PDE. The results shows that our wavelet-based refinement criterion is successful at controlling the overall error while the coarsening criterion is effective at retaining the relevant information on a compressed grid. Our software exploits a block-structured grid data structure for efficient multilevel operations, combined with a parallelization strategy that relies on a one-sided MPI-RMA communication approach with active post-start-complete-wait synchronization. Using performance tests up to 16,384 cores, we demonstrate that this leads to a highly scalable performance.
