Parallel computations are needed for effectively analyzing the concrete-faced rockfill dam using 3D nonlinear finite element method. Parallelism is to be found during modeling stage and some neighbouring dam sections are made into a substructure. It is convenient and can satisfy the demands of the domain decomposition. A parallel multi-frontal code for COW is developed and applied to the numerical analysis of Xilongchi lower reservoir dam, an asphalt concrete faced rockfill dam, with the same result as in a serial calculation. From the speedup ratios and parallel efficiency, it is shown that the parallel multi-frontal method can be used to reliably analyze the concrete-faced rockfill dam and it is simple and easy to realize, without requiring an accessorial task assignment subroutine.
