Description

Please include a summary of the change and which issue is fixed. Please also include relevant motivation and context. List any dependencies that are required for this change.

Fixes #2644

Type of change

Please add a line in the relevant section of CHANGELOG.md to document the change (include PR #) - note reverse order of PR #s. If necessary, also add to the list of breaking changes.

  • New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)
  • Optimization (back-end change that speeds up the code)
  • Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)

Key checklist:

  • No style issues: $ pre-commit run (see CONTRIBUTING.md for how to set this up to run automatically when committing locally, in just two lines of code)
  • All tests pass: $ python run-tests.py --all
  • The documentation builds: $ python run-tests.py --doctest

You can run unit and doctests together at once, using $ python run-tests.py --quick.

Further checks:

  • Code is commented, particularly in hard-to-understand areas
  • Tests added that prove fix is effective or that feature works

Code coverage is reduced slightly because there are several device specific pathways in the code (gpu vs cpu) that are not currently available for testing in our github CI pipelines.

These changes make use of Jax's vmap function to distribute solves over a GPU (where available), and multithreading when no GPU is detected. Metrics are for 100 solves with the following model on a ubuntu server with NVIDIA A40 card.

import pybamm
import numpy as np

model = pybamm.lithium_ion.DFN()
model.convert_to_format = 'jax'
model.events = []  # remove events (not supported in jax)
geometry = model.default_geometry
param = model.default_parameter_values
param.update({"Current function [A]": "[input]"})
param.process_geometry(geometry)
param.process_model(model)

n = 10
k = 5
values = np.linspace(0.1, 0.5, 100)
var = pybamm.standard_spatial_vars
var_pts = {var.x_n: n, var.x_s: n, var.x_p: n, var.r_n: k, var.r_p: k}
mesh = pybamm.Mesh(geometry, model.default_submesh_types, var_pts)
disc = pybamm.Discretisation(mesh, model.default_spatial_methods)
disc.process_model(model)
t_eval = np.linspace(0, 3600, 100)
solver = pybamm.JaxSolver(atol=1e-6, rtol=1e-6, method="BDF")
inputs = [{"Current function [A]": value} for value in values]
solution = solver.solve(model, t_eval, inputs=inputs)

Solver times:

cpu-multithreading: 114 secs
gpu-enabled: 19 secs

Further development may be possible by making use of Jax's pmap functionality to express single-program multiple-data (SPMD) programs (for running on a rack of GPUs); however, Jax only maintains experimental support for sparse matrices at this time and execution of pmap on pybamm models leads to instabilities (see also google/jax#13930).

@martinjrobins ready for review. as noted above, code-cov is down very slightly as we do not have github runners checking the gpu-specific implementation pathway. the CI fails seem to be due to apparently unrelated issues with lychee and docs (e.g. ubuntu/python3.11 fails installing doc deps after unit and integration tests all pass). benchmarks also don't appear to be running properly so we may need to delay merging until these are fixed.

@martinjrobins I've merged recent develop changes into the PR which has resolved most checks. In particular benchmarks are now passing; this just leaves lychee and my previous codecov comment (gh actions don't check gpu-specific pathways).

Sorry for the delay in reviewing this! Thanks @jsbrittain and happy for it to be merged, I'll open a new issue for adding runners with GPU

@brosaplanella Yes, I believe this PR is ready to merge.

Cool, can you fix the conflict with CHANGELOG and push? Pushing again might also fix the coverage

Note that coverage remains slightly down due to some gpu-specific pathways in the new code; martin opened an issue to support these going forwards (#3274 ).
