With the new OpenCL compliant release, structural and multiphysics simulations in Abaqus 6.11 can now been accelerated using a wide range of non-proprietary hardware platforms
Back in May 2011 Nvidia talked up new Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) compute capabilities in Simulia Abaqus 6.11, which made use of Nvidia’s proprietary parallel computing architecture, CUDA.
Now there’s some official news from AMD that simulations in the structural and multiphysics analysis software can also be accelerated by its GPU hardware. The new OpenCL compliant release of Abaqus 6.11 can use CPUs and GPUs from a range of hardware vendors including Intel, AMD (FirePro / FireStream) and Nvidia (Quadro / Tesla).
