The kick: biomechanics and collision injury

Abstract

In this paper we present an implementation for the QPACE supercomputer of a Lattice Boltzmann model of a fluid-dynamics flow in 2 dimensions. QPACE is a massively parallel application-driven system powered by the Cell processor. We review the structure of the model, describe in details its implementation on QPACE and finally present performance data and preliminary physics results.\nKeywords: Fluid-dynamics, Lattice Boltzmann Model, CBE processor, QPACE supercomputer.
