Possible bug related to domain decomposition

Open Yin-YinjianZhao opened this issue 8 months ago • 1 comments

Recently, we are using WarpX to do some 2D simulations. We found that when numprocs = [4,16] is changed, the results look very different. For example, the three plots below used numprocs = [1,64], numprocs = [4,16], numprocs = [16,4], respectively. The mobility diagnostics are: numprocs = [1,64]: mu_ave_pict_rMPI=1 numprocs = [4,16]: mu_ave_pict_rMPI=4 numprocs = [16,4]: mu_ave_pict_rMPI=16

I wonder if similar bugs have been detected before @RemiLehe @ax3l @dpgrote ? Note the cell sizes are:

nx = 96
nz = 256

We will try to use only multiples of 2 and test again different domain decompositions.
