  3. 3 3 3 Phase-field simulations are limited by a lack

    of usable computational power 2D instead of 3D The effects can take many forms Binary surrogate alloy Simplified free energy formulations Other missing physics Insufficient sample size No uncertainty quantification I think our community believes these limits are real, not just more complication for complication’s sake
  4. 4 4 4 Phase-field simulations are limited by a lack

    of usable computational power But why? Two Possibilities: Lack of computational resources Codes can’t scale to take advantage of existing resources
  5. 5 5 5 The coming exascale era… US DOE is

    scheduled to deploy the world’s first exascale computer later this year >1.5 ExaFlops, 4 AMD GPUs/node Much bigger than the already very big top supercomputers #1 Top500 List: Fugaku (Kobe, Japan) 0.442 ExaFlops 7,630,848 Arm A64FX cores #2 Top500 List: Summit (Oak Ridge, US) 0.149 ExaFlops 191,664 IBM Power9 cores 26,136 NVIDIA Tesla V100 GPUs You can apply to use the DOE machines, no need to be DOE-funded or US-based
  6. 6 6 6 Is phase-field modeling ready for exascale? (And

    what does that even mean? Exascale what?)
  7. 7 7 7 Exascale simulations vs. exascale problems Exascale Simulation

    • Perform one simulation on all/most of an exascale computer • One (set of coupled) PDE(s) • This is a big lift – the equivalent of 260,000 V100 GPUs Exascale Problem • Solve one problem using phase-field on all/most of an exascale computer • Ex. Many simulations to predict microstructure throughout an AM part with UQ • With job-packing and workflow managers, this is a recognized use case • Wall time per simulation needs to be reasonable, so scaling still matters Can be thought of as a sliding scale: 1 simulation on 260,000 GPUs to 260,000 coordinated simulations on 1 GPU each
  8. 9 9 9 Precipitation in AM Inconel 625 From NIST,

    microsegregation from solidification cells on the level of 0.5 – 1 μm with thin domains on the nm scale Also from NIST, precipitate dimensions range from 8 nm – 900 nm For standard anneal (800 C, 2h), diffusion length is ~0.5 μm Stoudt et al., IMMI, 9, 2020. Zhang, et al., Acta Mater., 152, 2018. Zhang, et al., Acta Mater., 152, 2018. So what does this mean? To study nucleation growth, and coarsening for multiple cells, we need: Grid spacing ~ 1nm (precipitate thickness) Domain ~ 2 μm x 2 μm x 1 μm (precipitate length, multiple cells) Time ~ 2 hours (annealing time) 2048 x 2048 x 1024 grid (4.3 billion points) 2-4 compositions, 12 order parameters (65 billion DoF)
  9. 10 10 10 Full melt pool solidification simulations • Very

    few phase-field simulations of full melt pools with cells/dendrites – Even in 2D, let alone 3D • Solidification cells on the level of 0.5 – 1 μm • Need grid spacing ~10 nm • Melt-pool radius ~50 μm 2D, half melt pool: 5,000 x 5,000 grid (25 million grid points) 3D, quarter spot weld: 5,000 x 5,000 x 5,000 grid (125 billion grid points) Stoudt et al., IMMI, 9, 2020.
  10. 11 11 11 Two teams, two approaches ExaAM • Application

    in the Exascale Computing Project for additive manufacturing • Focus: Exascale problem of incorporating localized microstructure effects in a part-scale simulation • Also strongly interested in pushing simulations toward the exascale • A DOE applied math center • Optimal control under uncertainty, UQ, optimal experimental design, multifidelity methods, reduced-order modeling • Additive manufacturing is one of two application areas • One focus is on how applied math methods can direct the efficient use of 100s, 1000s, etc. of high-fidelity phase- field simulations • Not focused on exascale, but the methods are very relevant

  12. 13 13 13 Motivation for code development in ExaAM 1.

  21. 22 22 22 GPU strategy for MEUMAPPS-SS 1. Original emphasis

    automatic offload with OpenACC – Observed 8x speedup with the “-acc” flag – OpenACC support on Frontier unclear 2. OpenMP Target – Fully supported on Frontier, working on a Frontier test machine (AMD GPUs) – Substantial re-write of code – 18x GPU speedup for offloaded loops – Still CPU-based FFT – Overall only 1.2x GPU speedup 3. Re-implementation as GPU-native in C++ Note: All GPU speedups are relative to a Summit node, comparing some multiple of 1 GPU vs 7 CPU cores

  26. 28 28 28 Strong/weak scaling (single-variant test) 4203: Starting to

    see some decent strong scaling in the 24-192 GPU range 8403: Decent strong scaling through 384 GPUs, still lower wall time at 768 GPUs Weak scaling is pretty poor
  27. 29 29 29 What’s next for MEUMAPPS-SS (C++)? • Improving

    FFT library performance – Working with the heFFTe team to improve scaling – ECP another FFT team (FFTX) + new benchmarking effort – Fortran code has better CPU scaling, points to opportunities for heFFTe • Reduce FFTs – Kokkos loops get much better GPU speedups and no MPI communication – Want to trade more non-FFT work for fewer FFTs • Improved physics – Add new capabilities under development in MEUMAPPS-SS (Fortran) – Add support for full CALPHAD free energies with Thermo4PFM • Frontier – MEUMAPPS-SS (C++) up and running on AMD GPUs on an ECP test machine • Open source release
  28. 30 30 30 ExaAM phase-field code summary • ExaAM is

    developing 4 phase-field codes • Mix of methods • Current target applications are solidification and solid-state transformations – Codes have the physics capabilities for real problems – But the codes are flexible enough to modify for other applications • Encouraging results on GPUs – MEUMAPPS-SS (C++) and Tusas have 5-6x speedups (w/ ratio of 1 GPU/7 CPU cores) – MEUMAPPS-SS (C++) with strong scaling to hundreds of GPUs – Tusas with strong and weak scaling to 24,000 GPUs (!) • On track for deployment to Frontier
  29. 31 31 31 An aside: ExaAM and the PFHub benchmarks

    BM3 Upload: AMPE BM1a Upload: MEUMAPPS-SS (C++) • 128x128 grid • 1 million time steps in 35 minutes on 1 CPU core • Highlights the importance of adaptive time stepping Other uses • Tusas used BM3 for verification • Plans to use a 3D version of BM3 for a performance test between AMPE and Tusas • MEUMAPPS-SS (C++) used a simplified version of BM2 for initial testing and benchmarking
  30. 32 32 32 Enough about the codes …what can we

    do with them? Let’s revisit the exascale simulation examples
  31. 33 33 33 Precipitation in AM Inconel 625 From work

    at NIST, microsegregation from solidification cells on the level of 0.5 – 1 μm with thin domains on the nm scale Also from NIST, precipitate dimensions range from 8 nm – 900 nm For standard anneal (800 C, 2h), diffusion length is ~0.5 μm Stoudt et al., IMMI, 9, 2020. Zhang, et al., Acta Mater., 152, 2018. Zhang, et al., Acta Mater., 152, 2018. So what does this mean? To study nucleation growth, and coarsening for multiple cells, we need: Grid spacing ~ 1nm (precipitate thickness) Domain ~ 2 μm x 2 μm x 1 μm (multiple cells) Time ~ 2 hours (annealing time) 2048 x 2048 x 1024 grid (4.3 billion points) 2-4 compositions, 12 order parameters (65 billion DoF)

Conf. Comp. Sci., 2020) This is 4x bigger domain 4x 6144 = 24,576 GPUs = Summit How far can we push on Frontier?
  33. 35 35 35 Full melt pool solidification simulations • Very

    few phase-field simulations of full melt pools with cells/dendrites – Even in 2D, let alone 3D • Solidification cells on the level of 0.5 – 1 μm • Need grid spacing ~10 nm • Melt-pool radius ~50 μm 2D, half melt pool: 5,000 x 5,000 grid (25 million grid points) 3D, quarter spot weld: 5,000 x 5,000 x 5,000 grid (125 billion grid points) Stoudt et al., IMMI, 9, 2020.
  34. 36 36 36 Full melt pool solidification simulations Can we

    do it? Tusas simulations up to 4.3 billion DoF -> about 1 billion elements 10003 domain in 3D, 32,0002 in 2D Summit -> Frontier gives us 10x Flops Need “just” another 10x… Ghosh, et al., J. Comp. Phys. (submitted). • Very few phase-field simulations of full melt pools with cells/dendrites – Even in 2D, let alone 3D • Solidification cells on the level of 0.5 – 1 μm • Need grid spacing ~10 nm • Melt-pool radius ~50 μm 2D, half melt pool: 5,000 x 5,000 grid (25 million grid points) 3D, quarter spot weld: 5,000 x 5,000 x 5,000 grid (125 billion grid points)
  35. 37 37 37 Pushing to the exascale with ExaAM Exascale

    computers are almost here Phase-field modeling has challenges that scale can solve But exascale machines are big, and it isn’t easy to use large fractions of them efficiently ExaAM is meeting this challenge with AMPE, Tusas, MEUMAPPS-SL, and MEUMAPPS-SS
  36. 38 38 38 AEOLUS Overview • A DOE applied math

    center (MMICC) • Optimal control under uncertainty, UQ, optimal experimental design, multifidelity methods, reduced-order modeling • Two application areas: – Additive manufacturing – Block co-polymers • One focus is on how applied math methods can direct the efficient use of 100s, 1000s, etc. of high-fidelity phase-field simulations • Not focused on exascale, but the methods are very relevant
  37. 39 39 39 Block copolymer highlights • Evolution based on

    a non-local variant of Cahn-Hilliard called the Ohta-Kawasaki model • Emphasis is on the final steady-state solution Disclaimer: I’m not involved in the copolymer applications Direct energy minimization method is 1,000x faster than gradient flow Cao, Ghattas, Oden Model inversion to infer model parameters from noisy experimental microstructure Baptisa, Cao, Chen, Ghattas, Li, Marzouk, Oden Optimal control of substrate chemistry to direct fine-scale self- assembly Cao, Chen, Chen, Ghattas, Luo, Oden
  38. 40 40 40 Additive manufacturing highlights • Specifically focused on

    solidification phenomena • Directional solidification of alloys is the target, but pure material used as a proving ground Burkovska, DeWitt, Radhakrishnan, Gunzburger Non-local Cahn-Hillard can have perfectly sharp interfaces. Can we create a solidification model like this? Solidification reduced order model using operator inference, leveraging equation structure for the reduced representation Khodabakhshi, Geelen, DeWitt, Radhakrishnan, Willcox Multiscale modeling for AM with validation from full-melt-pool simulations Bao, Qin, DeWitt, Radhakrishnan, Biros
  39. 41 41 41 Multiscale modeling of a spot weld Goal:

    Test if targeted, thin phase-field simulations can give insight into the dendrite/cell structure in a melt pool Perform melt-pool- scale thermal simulation Extract gradient and velocity for lines normal to the thermal gradient Perform transient phase-field simulations along those lines
  40. 42 42 42 How do we know if it works?

    (A full-melt-pool simulation) The only big discrepancy is the primary arm spacing Why? It’s a geometric effect from the converging dendrites Cell size can’t adjust fast enough (Gurevich et al., PRE, 2010) Can’t be seen in rectangular domains Is this a known phenomena?
  41. 43 43 43 The synthesis of ExaAM and AEOLUS •

    Can we test “line models” in 3D using ExaAM codes for full- melt-pool simulations? • If they work, can we develop efficient, accurate reduced order models for the “line models”? • If those work, can we solve optimal control problems for the heat source with dendrite-scale resolution? • Stay tuned! ExaAM
  42. 44 44 44 In conclusion… Exascale computers bring the promise

    of freeing phase-field simulations from current computational constraints But we need codes that use them effectively And we need to define high-value problems to solve Hopefully the work we’re doing in ExaAM and AEOLUS helps the community prepare to solve exascale problems …either directly through our codes and methods, or by learning from what we’ve done (good or bad)
