New question #228175 on Yade:
https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/228175

Dear all,

I’m using Yade to simulate some mechanical experiments such as Direct Shear and 
Uniaxial Compression of geotechnical materials. There are at least 100,000 
particles in the model, as a result, it takes about 4 days or even more to 
complete one simulation although I have used 8 cores with a desktop computer (8 
cores ; Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2600 CPU @ 3.40GHz 3.70GHz) . So I’m considering 
rewrite the mainly time-consuming part of code in the calculation with CUDA to 
achieve a much higher efficiency, for example the part of contact detection. 
Now I have several questions to consult: 1、Whether this idea is feasible and 
what degree of workload will be? 2、What’s the structure of the source code 
like? 3、If I want to speed up the part of contact detection may I only need to 
rewrite the corresponding code of that part? And which file is this part of 
code in?
Thanks a lot for your help in advance.

Ocean
