Abstract
Rolling bearing simulations are very computationally intensive. Serial simulations may take weeks to execute, and there is a need to use the potential of parallel computing. The specific structure of the rollin g bearing problem is used to develop suitable scheduling strategies. T he authors discuss the system of stiff ordinary differential equations arising from a bearing model and show how to numerically solve these ordinary differential equations on parallel computers. Benchmarking re sults are presented for two test cases on three platforms.
