چکیده

Numerical experiments are presented whereby the eeect of reorderings on the convergence of preconditioned Krylov subspace methods for the solution of nonsymmetric linear systems is shown. The preconditioners used in this study are diierent variants of incomplete factorizations. It is shown that reorderings for direct methods, such as Reverse Cuthill-McKee and Minimum Degree, can be very beneecial. The beneet can be seen in the reduction of the number of iterations and also in measuring the appropriate deviation of the preconditioned operator from the identity.

Numerical Experiments with Parallel Orderings for Ilu Preconditioners

Incomplete factorization preconditioners such as ILU, ILUT and MILU are well-known robust general-purpose techniques for solving linear systems on serial computers. However, they are difficult to parallelize efficiently. Various techniques have been used to parallelize these preconditioners, such as multicolor orderings and subdomain preconditioning. These techniques may degrade the performance...

New Evaluation Index of Orderings in Incomplete Factorization Preconditioning

| It is well known that ordering of unknowns greatly a ects convergence in Incomplete LU (ILU) factorization preconditioned iterative methods. The authors recently proposed a simple evaluation way for orderings in ILU preconditioning. The evaluation index, which has a simple relationship with a norm of a remainder matrix, is easily computed without additional memory requirement. The computation...

Nonsymmetric Preconditioner Updates in Newton-Krylov Methods for Nonlinear Systems

Newton-Krylov methods, combination of Newton-like methods and Krylov subspace methods for solving the Newton equations, often need adequate preconditioning in order to be successful. Approximations of the Jacobian matrices are required to form preconditioners and this step is very often the dominant cost of Newton-Krylov methods. Therefore, working with preconditioners destroys in principle the...

Orderings for Incomplete Factorization Preconditioning of Nonsymmetric Problems

Numerical experiments are presented whereby the effect of reorderings on the convergence of preconditioned Krylov subspace methods for the solution of nonsymmetric linear systems is shown. The preconditioners used in this study are different variants of incomplete factorizations. It is shown that certain reorderings for direct methods, such as reverse Cuthill–McKee, can be very beneficial. The ...

The Gcr-simple Solver and the Simple-type Preconditioning for Incompressible Navier-stokes Equations

The discretization of incompressible Navier-Stokes equation leads to a large linear system with a nonsymmetric and indefinite coefficient matrix. Many methods are known to overcome these difficulties: Uzawa method, SIMPLE-type methods, penalty method, pressure correction method, etc. In this paper, Krylov accelerated versions of the SIMPLE(R) methods: GCR-SIMPLE(R) are investigated, where SIMPL...
