“…In structural design and analysis, some researchers applied Internet technology to provide analytical services to be accessible remotely over the Internet. Examples of such implementations include Law (2002, 2004), Nuggehally et al (2003), Yang et al (2004), Vacharasintopchai et al (2007) and Chen and Lin (2008). These studies successfully enable users to access centralized computing recourses remotely via the Internet.…”

This paper presents a new Internet-based computational framework for the realistic simulation of multi-scale response of structural systems. Two levels of parallel processing are involved in this framework: multiple local distributed computing environments connected by the Internet to form a clusterto-cluster distributed computing environment. To utilize such a computing environment for a realistic simulation, the simulation task of a structural system has been separated into a simulation of a simplified global model in association with several detailed component models using various scales. These related multi-scale simulation tasks are distributed amongst clusters and connected to form a multi-level hierarchy. The Internet is used to coordinate geographically distributed simulation tasks. This paper also presents the development of a software framework that can support the multi-level hierarchical simulation approach, in a cluster-to-cluster distributed computing environment. The architectural design of the program also allows the integration of several multi-scale models to be clients and servers under a single platform. Such integration can combine geographically distributed computing resources to produce realistic simulations of structural systems.

This paper examines the use of .NET's Task Parallel Library (TPL) and Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) in finite element analysis. TPL is studied in terms of equation solvers. It is shown that there is no significant difference in execution speed compared with non-TPL code, though it does offer advantages in terms of software engineering. WCF based equation solvers are also examined, and a WCF approach to designing finite element software. Using WCF based solvers involves no loss of execution speed. WCF is an example of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and the possibilities for using this to increase flexibility of finite element based applications is discussed.
