EQSIM and RAJA: Enabling Exascale Predictions of Earthquake Effects on Critical Infrastructure

Nearly 120 years ago, the great “San Francisco” earthquake of 1906 provided a stark and sobering view of the havoc that can be caused by the sudden and violent movement of Earth’s tectonic plates. According to USGS, the rupture along the San Andreas fault extended 296 miles (447 kilometers) and shook so violently that the motion could be felt as far north as Oregon and east into Nevada. The estimated 7.9-magnitude quake and subsequent fires decimated the major metropolis and surrounding areas: buildings turned to ruins, hundreds of thousands of people left homeless, and a death toll exceeding 3,000. Today, as evidenced by the catastrophic 7.8-magnitude earthquake that struck Turkey in February of 2023, large earthquakes still present a significant potential danger to life and economic security as researchers work to develop ways to better understand earthquake phenomena and quantify associated risks.

Towards Exascale Astrophysics of Mergers and Supernovae (TEAMS)

The major goals of the TEAMS project are (i) to improve the modeling of many of the suggested astrophysical sites of the r‐process, as well as some potential p‐process sites, (ii) to use our models to support and guide the experimental efforts at FRIB and similar facilities, and (iii) to use our tools to cement our understanding of the roles that massive stars play in galactic chemical evolution. As part of the TEAMS project, Mezzacappa (UTK, Reddy (UW), Surman (ND), and Steiner (UTK) are (i) generating equations of state and neutrino opacities for simulations of core‐collapse supernovae and neutron star mergers which are more faithful to current understanding of the nucleon‐nucleon interaction, (ii) integrating those new equations of state and neutrino opacities into new simulation codes being developed, (iii) performing detailed nuclear reaction network post‐processing to determine abundances from simulations and (iv) quantifying the impact of nuclear physics uncertainties on r‐process abundances.

Program Generators for Exascale and Beyond (Final Technical Report)

The major goals of this project were to devise programming models and supporting tools that simplify the construction of specialized high‐performance generators, leading to improvements over the state of the art along the various dimensions of portability, performance, and productivity. In particular, the project achieved these goals by focusing on domain‐specific languages (DSLs) as intermediate layers in a translation and optimization framework, on composability of program generators, on re‐targeting legacy code, and on fundamental methodologies such as stage polymorphism or "generic programming in time".
