    Abstract
    We present in this paper a comprehensive performance study of highly efficient extreme scale direct numerical simulations of secondary flows, using an optimized version of Nek5000. Our investigations are conducted on various Cray XC40 systems, using a very high-order spectral element method. Single-node efficiency is achieved by auto-generated assembly implementations of small matrix multiplies and key vector-vector operations, streaming lossless I/O compression, aggressive loop merging and selective single precision evaluations. Comparative studies across different Cray XC40 systems at scale, Trinity (LANL), Cori(NERSC) and ShaheenII(KAUST), show that a Cray programming environment, network configuration, parallel file system and burst buffer all have a major impact on the performance. All three systems possess a similar hardware with similar CPU nodes and parallel file system, but they have a different network theoretical bandwidth, a different OS and different versions of the programming environment. Our study reveals how these slight configuration differences can be critical in terms of performance of the application. We also find that using 294,912 cores (9216 nodes) on Trinity XC40 sustains the petascale performance, and as well 50% of peak memory bandwidth over the entire solver (500 TB/s in aggregate). On 3072 KNL nodes of Cori, we reach 378 TFLOP/s with an aggregated bandwidth of 310 TB/s, corresponding to time-to-solution 2.11× faster than obtained with the same number of Haswell nodes.

    Export search results

    The export option will allow you to export the current search results of the entered query to a file. Different formats are available for download. To export the items, click on the button corresponding with the preferred download format.

    By default, clicking on the export buttons will result in a download of the allowed maximum amount of items. For anonymous users the allowed maximum amount is 50 search results.

    To select a subset of the search results, click "Selective Export" button and make a selection of the items you want to export. The amount of items that can be exported at once is similarly restricted as the full export.

    After making a selection, click one of the export format buttons. The amount of items that will be exported is indicated in the bubble next to export format.
