Research of neighbor particle search algorithm based on CUDA

In particle methods,the application of neighbor particle search algorithm can quickly get the information of neighbor particle,but the tradition neighbor particle search puts a high challenge to computing speed from large-scale particle system data calculation.The compute capability of GPU and develop environment of CUDA are studied.Based on parallel multithread processing technology of GPU(Graphic Processing Unit),a parallel search algorithm is proposed.The result shows that the algorithm of parallel neighbor particle search based on GPU can accelerate the process of neighbor particle search and reduce the time significantly,and get the acceleration of more than 290 times,and shows high-performance processing power in large-scale particle system.
