HiPIMS names for High-Performance Integrated hydrodynamic Modelling System. It uses state-of-art numerical schemes (Godunov-type finite volume) to solve the 2D shallow water equations for flood simulations. To support high-resolution flood simulations, HiPIMS is implemented on multiple GPUs (Graphics Processing Unit) using CUDA/C++ languages to achieve high-performance computing.
Project description
High-Performance Integrated hydrodynamic Modelling System hybrid
This is a beta version inhouse code of Hemlab used for high-performance flooding simulation.
