J. Appl. Mech. 2015;82(11): doi: /
Figure Legend:
Global invariant set was found of the impact model. The subdivision processes in four different cellular space resolutions are presented to show the improvement of solution accuracy. Initial cell space partition is 7 × 7. Final cell space resolution reaches 189 × 189 with 3935 cells found as solutions. Computational time is  s for sequential computing and s for parallel computing. (For the interpretation of color in all the figures, the reader is referred to the web version of the paper.)

Figure Legend:
Global properties of the impact model solved by the modified GCM analysis flow. Cell space partition is 189 × 189. Blue cells are the chaotic attractor, black are the unstable manifold, and red are the domain of attraction. Note the attractor and unstable manifold coincide with the invariant set shown in Fig. 1. Sequential computing takes s, while parallel computing takes  s.

Figure Legend:
The attractors of the plasma model described in Eq. (31) in the cell space with 30 × 30 × 30 resolution. The four attractors occupy a quarter of the state space each and are symmetric with respect to the xz and yz plane. The CPU time of sequential computing for this example is  s, while the parallel GCM analysis on GPU only takes 28.93 s. The parallel computing accelerates the computing by 49 times.

Figure Legend:
The attractor of the 6D Lorenz system obtained by the SCM–GCM hybrid method and post-processing with interpolation. Blue dots are the central points of the cells representing the attractor projected to the 3D space. Red dots are the interpolated points. The familiar butterfly shape can be seen from the low-dimensional projection.

Two-dimensional projections of the attractor of the 6D Lorenz system. Blue dots are the centers of the cells in the invariant set. Red dots showing the fine structure of the attractor are generated with interpolation.

Figure Legend:
The relationship between the number of sampled points and the Hausdorff distance of the invariant set of the 6D Lorenz system is obtained by the interpolation scheme to the reference set. The interpolation scheme appears to be insensitive to the number of sampled points.
