[Libmesh-users] [RB] Time comparison between FE and RB methods

[<ss...@pu...>]

Hello, all.

 

I want to compare the computation time between FE and RB methods, so I
looked at "libMesh Performance."

Here, I used the "Avg Time with Sub" of "truth_solve()" as the FE solve time
in the RB offline stage.

And as the RB solve time, I used the "Avg Time with Sub" of "rb_solve()" in
the RB online stage.

But I don't know if these are right ways to compare computation times.

 

Please tell me which values are generally used to compare computation times
between FE and RB methods.

 

For reference, results of "libMesh Performance" in my codes are as follows.

(Offline stage)

 

libMesh Performance: Alive time=1702.12, Active time=1692.06
