Abstract
One way to develop a new nonlinear system model is to use its sensitivity study. The global sensitivity study of nonlinear systems requires a lot of parameter combinations and, therefore a lot of calculations. As the differential equations are independent of each parameter combination the process can be accelerated with parallelization. The aim of the research was to parallelize Sobol’s sensitivity study of nonlinear systems with a Duffing-type vibration system as an example. Using Komondor HPC different configurations were tested from which the OpenMP with 128 threads gave the best results. With the OpenMP configuration a strong and weak scalability study was performed, and it was shown that the problem is well scalable. Using job arrays 16 computers were utilized and a 1397.95-fold speedup could be achieved. With the results it will be possible to carry out the sensitivity analysis of difficult nonlinear systems effectively.
