Under the support of
the US DOE SciDAC program, SLAC has been developing a suite of 3D
parallel finite-element codes for high-accuracy and high-fidelity
electromagnetic and beam modeling. Running on state of art
supercomputers, these codes have had tremendous imparts on the design
and optimization of ongoing accelerator projects. With the advances in
applied math, computer science and parallel implementations, the
availability of peta-scale supercomputers will enhance our simulation
capabilities to an unprecedented level in terms of large-scale of
accelerator systems and multi-scale complexity of accelerator
components. The integrated modeling capabilities of electromagnetics,
self-consistent Particle-In-Cell (PIC) beam simulation and multi-physics
simulations that include thermal and mechanical effects will allow
comprehensive design and evaluation of accelerator components and
systems, which would have a significant impact on the optimization of
machine performance and cost. In this talk, we will present simulation
results using these parallel codes on RF modeling and HOM damping of SRF
cavities, trapped mode calculations of the ILC cryomodule, 3D
multipacting studies of HOM couplers, PIC simulations of the LCLS RF
gun, and EM/thermal/mechanical analysis of RF cavities.
