4.         NATURE OF PROBLEM SOLVED

AMP is general purpose, multi-physics computational environment with implementations of coupled diffusion, mechanics, and fluid dynamics.  The Advanced Multi-Physics (AMP) code, in its present form, will allow a user to build a multi-physics application code from existing mechanics and diffusion operators and extend them with user-defined material models and new physics operators.  There are examples that demonstrate mechanics, thermo-mechanics, coupled diffusion, and mechanical contact.   The AMP code is designed to leverage a variety of mathematical solvers (PETSc, Trilinos, SUNDIALS, and AMP solvers) in a consistent interchangeable approach.  Advancements in the near future will include a demonstration of the same approach to mesh databases (LibMesh, STKmesh, and MOAB), as well as discretization libraries.

5.         METHOD OF SOLUTION

AMP supports a variety of algorithms, with initial implementation of continuous finite-element primarily solved with a Jacobian-Free Newton Krylov (JFNK) approach.

6.         RESTRICTIONS OR LIMITATIONS

None.

7.         TYPICAL RUNNING TIME

3-60 minutes on a single processor or less in parallel.

8.         COMPUTER HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS

AMP will run on Linux workstations and MacOS systems.

9.         COMPUTER SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS

GNU (1) or Intel compilers (2), CMake and CTest from Kitware, Inc. (3), BLAS (4), LAPACK (5), MPI:  MPICH2 (6) or OpenMPI (7), TRILINOS (8), PETSc (9), HYPRE (10), and  LibMesh (11).  Optional packages include: SUNDIALS (12), Doxygen (13), Graphviz (14), LaTeX (15), HDF5 (16), SILO (17), and BOOST(18).
