Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: "This thesis investigates efficient iterative methods for a type of saddle-point problem, namely the generalized Stokes problem, which arises frequently in the simulation of time-dependent Navier-Stokes equations for incompressible fluid flow. These systems are indefinite due to a set of linear constraints on the velocity, causing difficulty for most preconditioners and iterative methods. A multilevel algorithm is proposed for the solution of such systems, which uses a novel technique for the construction of a basis for the space satisfying the constraints. The proposed algorithm achieves faster convergence on account of implicit preconditioning of the linear system, and can be implemented efficiently on parallel processors. Along with a scalable parallel implementation described in the thesis, the multilevel algorithm yields a competitive parallel preconditioned iterative method for the solution of these problems."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this thesis, we work on iterative solutions of large linear systems of saddle point problems of the form where A ∈ Rn×n, B1, B2 ∈ Rm×n, f ∈ Rn, and n ≥ m. Many applications in computational sciences and engineering give rise to saddle point problems such as finite element approximations to Stokes problems, image reconstruction, tomography, genetics, statistics and model order reduction for dynamical systems. Such problems are typically large and sparse. We develop new techniques to solve the saddle point problems depending on the rank of B2. First, we deal with the case when B2 has full row rank, i.e., rank (B2) = m. The key idea is to construct a projection matrix and transform the original problem to a least squares problem then solve the least squares problem by using one of the iterative methods such as LSMR. In most applications B2 has full rank, but not always. Next, we turn to the saddle point systems with the rank-deficient matrix B2. Similarly we construct a new projection matrix by using only maximal linearly independent rows of B2. By using this projection matrix, the original problem can still be transformed into a least squares problem. Again, the new system can be solved by using one of the iterative techniques for least squares problems. Numerical experiments show that the new iterative solution techniques work very well for large sparse saddle point systems with both full rank and rank-deficient matrix B2.

Download or read book Constraint Preconditioning of Saddle Point Problems written by Scott Aaron Ladenheim and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis is concerned with the fast iterative solution of linear systems of equations of saddle point form. Saddle point problems are a ubiquitous class of matrices that arise in a host of computational science and engineering applications. The focus here is on improving the convergence of iterative methods for these problems by preconditioning. Preconditioning is a way to transform a given linear system into a different problem for which iterative methods converge faster. Saddle point matrices have a very specific block structure and many preconditioning strategies for these problems exploit this structure. The preconditioners considered in this thesis are constraint preconditioners. This class of preconditioner mimics the structure of the original saddle point problem. In this thesis, we prove norm- and field-of-values-equivalence for constraint preconditioners associated to saddle point matrices with a particular structure. As a result of these equivalences, the number of iterations needed for convergence of a constraint preconditioned minimal residual Krylov subspace method is bounded, independent of the size of the matrix. In particular, for saddle point systems that arise from the finite element discretization of partial differential equations (p.d.e.s), the number of iterations it takes for GMRES to converge for theses constraint preconditioned systems is bounded (asymptotically), independent of the size of the mesh width. Moreover, we extend these results when appropriate inexact versions of the constraint preconditioner are used. We illustrate this theory by presenting numerical experiments on saddle point matrices that arise from the finite element solution of coupled Stokes-Darcy flow. This is a system of p.d.e.s that models the coupling of a free flow to a porous media flow by conditions across the interface of the two flow regions. We present experiments in both two and three dimensions, using different types of elements (triangular, quadrilateral), different finite element schemes (continuous, discontinuous Galerkin methods), and different geometries. In all cases, the effectiveness of the constraint preconditioner is demonstrated.

This book was released on 2008-08-27 with total page 471 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea for this book originated during the workshop “Model order reduction, coupled problems and optimization” held at the Lorentz Center in Leiden from S- tember 19–23, 2005. During one of the discussion sessions, it became clear that a book describing the state of the art in model order reduction, starting from the very basics and containing an overview of all relevant techniques, would be of great use for students, young researchers starting in the ?eld, and experienced researchers. The observation that most of the theory on model order reduction is scattered over many good papers, making it dif?cult to ?nd a good starting point, was supported by most of the participants. Moreover, most of the speakers at the workshop were willing to contribute to the book that is now in front of you. The goal of this book, as de?ned during the discussion sessions at the workshop, is three-fold: ?rst, it should describe the basics of model order reduction. Second, both general and more specialized model order reduction techniques for linear and nonlinear systems should be covered, including the use of several related numerical techniques. Third, the use of model order reduction techniques in practical appli- tions and current research aspects should be discussed. We have organized the book according to these goals. In Part I, the rationale behind model order reduction is explained, and an overview of the most common methods is described.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Large sparse linear systems of equations are ubiquitous in science, engineering and beyond. This open access monograph focuses on factorization algorithms for solving such systems. It presents classical techniques for complete factorizations that are used in sparse direct methods and discusses the computation of approximate direct and inverse factorizations that are key to constructing general-purpose algebraic preconditioners for iterative solvers. A unified framework is used that emphasizes the underlying sparsity structures and highlights the importance of understanding sparse direct methods when developing algebraic preconditioners. Theoretical results are complemented by sparse matrix algorithm outlines. This monograph is aimed at students of applied mathematics and scientific computing, as well as computational scientists and software developers who are interested in understanding the theory and algorithms needed to tackle sparse systems. It is assumed that the reader has completed a basic course in linear algebra and numerical mathematics.
