Asynchronous scalable version of the Global-Local non-invasive coupling

Abstract: The Global-Local non-invasive coupling is an improvement of the submodeling technique, which permits to locally enhance structure computations by introducing patches with refined models and to take into accounts all the interactions. In order to circumvent its inherently limited computational performance, we propose and implement an asynchronous version of the method. The asynchronous coupling reduces the dependency on communications, failures, and load imbalance. We present the theory and the implementation of the method in the linear case and illustrate its performance on academic cases inspired by actual industrial problems.
