Book Multilevel Block Factorization Preconditioners

Download or read book Multilevel Block Factorization Preconditioners written by Panayot S. Vassilevski and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-10-22 with total page 527 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph is the first to provide a comprehensive, self-contained and rigorous presentation of some of the most powerful preconditioning methods for solving finite element equations in a common block-matrix factorization framework. The book covers both algorithms and analysis using a common block-matrix factorization approach which emphasizes its unique feature. Topics covered include the classical incomplete block-factorization preconditioners, the most efficient methods such as the multigrid, algebraic multigrid, and domain decomposition. This text can serve as an indispensable reference for researchers, graduate students, and practitioners. It can also be used as a supplementary text for a topics course in preconditioning and/or multigrid methods at the graduate level.

Book Iterative Methods for Large Linear Systems

Download or read book Iterative Methods for Large Linear Systems written by David R. Kincaid and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2014-05-10 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Iterative Methods for Large Linear Systems contains a wide spectrum of research topics related to iterative methods, such as searching for optimum parameters, using hierarchical basis preconditioners, utilizing software as a research tool, and developing algorithms for vector and parallel computers. This book provides an overview of the use of iterative methods for solving sparse linear systems, identifying future research directions in the mainstream of modern scientific computing with an eye to contributions of the past, present, and future. Different iterative algorithms that include the successive overrelaxation (SOR) method, symmetric and unsymmetric SOR methods, local (ad-hoc) SOR scheme, and alternating direction implicit (ADI) method are also discussed. This text likewise covers the block iterative methods, asynchronous iterative procedures, multilevel methods, adaptive algorithms, and domain decomposition algorithms. This publication is a good source for mathematicians and computer scientists interested in iterative methods for large linear systems.

Book Finite Elements and Fast Iterative Solvers

Download or read book Finite Elements and Fast Iterative Solvers written by Howard C. Elman and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 495 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes why and how to do Scientific Computing for fundamental models of fluid flow. It contains introduction, motivation, analysis, and algorithms and is closely tied to freely available MATLAB codes that implement the methods described. The focus is on finite element approximation methods and fast iterative solution methods for the consequent linear(ized) systems arising in important problems that model incompressible fluid flow. The problems addressed are the Poisson equation, Convection-Diffusion problem, Stokes problem and Navier-Stokes problem, including new material on time-dependent problems and models of multi-physics. The corresponding iterative algebra based on preconditioned Krylov subspace and multigrid techniques is for symmetric and positive definite, nonsymmetric positive definite, symmetric indefinite and nonsymmetric indefinite matrix systems respectively. For each problem and associated solvers there is a description of how to compute together with theoretical analysis that guides the choice of approaches and describes what happens in practice in the many illustrative numerical results throughout the book (computed with the freely downloadable IFISS software). All of the numerical results should be reproducible by readers who have access to MATLAB and there is considerable scope for experimentation in the "computational laboratory" provided by the software. Developments in the field since the first edition was published have been represented in three new chapters covering optimization with PDE constraints (Chapter 5); solution of unsteady Navier-Stokes equations (Chapter 10); solution of models of buoyancy-driven flow (Chapter 11). Each chapter has many theoretical problems and practical computer exercises that involve the use of the IFISS software. This book is suitable as an introduction to iterative linear solvers or more generally as a model of Scientific Computing at an advanced undergraduate or beginning graduate level.

Book Rapid Solution of Finite Element Equations on Locally Refined Grids by Multi level Methods

Download or read book Rapid Solution of Finite Element Equations on Locally Refined Grids by Multi level Methods written by John R. Van Rosendale and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis is concerned with the use of multi-level methods to solve the linear systems arising from finite element discretizations of elliptic equations. In all, three multi-level methods are considered. The first of these is applicable only to quasi-uniform grids, but is simpler than other algorithms considered in previous theoretical work. The other two algorithms are applicable to both quasi-uniform grids, and locally refined grids, those grids on which the size of the largest and smallest elements many differ by an arbitrarily large factor. All three algorithms are asymptotically optimal, producing good solutions in O(N) operations on a finite element grid with N elements. These asymptotically optimal complexity bounds for the last two algorithms are the first such bounds for multi-level methods on locally refined grids. One of these algorithms achieves this O(N) complexity bound under weaker than expected conditions on the dimensions of the finite element spaces used by the algorithm.

Download or read book Multigrid Methods written by Stephen F. McCormick and published by SIAM. This book was released on 1987-12-01 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A thoughtful consideration of the current level of development of multigrid methods, this volume is a carefully edited collection of papers that addresses its topic on several levels. The first three chapters orient the reader who is familiar with standard numerical techniques to multigrid methods, first by discussing multigrid in the context of standard techniques, second by detailing the mechanics of use of the method, and third by applying the basic method to some current problems in fluid dynamics. The fourth chapter provides a unified development, complete with theory, of algebraic multigrid (AMG), which is a linear equation solver based on multigrid principles. The last chapter is an ambitious development of a very general theory of multigrid methods for variationally posed problems. Included as an appendix is the latest edition of the Multigrid Bibliography, an attempted compilation of all existing research publications on multigrid.

Book excerpt: Multi-grid methods are the most efficient tools for solving elliptic boundary value problems. The reader finds here an elementary introduction to multi-grid algorithms as well as a comprehensive convergence analysis. One section describes special applications (convection-diffusion equations, singular perturbation problems, eigenvalue problems, etc.). The book also contains a complete presentation of the multi-grid method of the second kind, which has important applications to integral equations (e.g. the "panel method") and to numerous other problems. Readers with a practical interest in multi-grid methods will benefit from this book as well as readers with a more theoretical interest.
