Parallel FFT-based Poisson Solver for Isolated Three-dimensional Systems
arXiv:1106.0557 · doi:10.1016/j.cpc.2011.05.014
Abstract
We describe an implementation to solve Poisson's equation for an isolated system on a unigrid mesh using FFTs. The method solves the equation globally on mesh blocks distributed across multiple processes on a distributed-memory parallel computer. Test results to demonstrate the convergence and scaling properties of the implementation are presented. The solver is offered to interested users as the library PSPFFT.
