“…Apparently, the time integration of more than two million unknowns with this fully implicit algorithm can be done in less than fifty seconds, if fourteen processors of this hardware system are used. For comparison purposes, it is useful to claim that the solution of a single system of 3656 equations with the conventional monolithic approximation [15] requires 15 s on eight processors. Moreover, the efficiency of our algorithm with regard to two processors is about 60%, which is higher than those of the flow and the mesh subproblems (∼50%), and becomes higher as the number of viscoelastic stress modes increases.…”
