Abstract

This paper proposes two parallel algorithms to optimise a Fortran application that solves thermoelastic contact problems between three-dimensional solids using the Boundary Element Method. Parallel libraries like MPI are of great use when trying to minimise the execution time of numerical codes. Experiments carried out show the effectiveness of parallel programming and the study of the obtained results provides information on the main factors influencing that effectiveness. A reduction in the execution time of a 82.93% has been achieved.
