Substructure-based Block-diagonal Preconditioning for BEM Systems of Equations - Applications to the Micromechanical Analysis of General Composites
نویسندگان
چکیده
The boundary-element subregion-by-subregion (BE SBS) algorithm, developed in previous works, is employed to construct global block-diagonal preconditioners for BEM systems of equations. As the BE matrices for each BE subregion are independently assembled and stored, the block-diagonal-based preconditioners for the corresponding BE models are immediately constructed. A Krylov solver is embedded in the SBS algorithm, and this work, particularly, the Bi-CG solver is considered. The micromechanical analysis of large-order 3D representative volume elements (RVEs) of carbon-nanotube (CNT) composites are carried out to show the performance of the preconditioned iterative solver.

This paper is aimed at the efficient numerical simulation of optimization problems governed by either steady-state or unsteady partial differential equations involving random coefficients. This class of problems often leads to prohibitively high dimensional saddle point systems with tensor product structure, especially when discretized with the stochastic Galerkin finite element method. Here, w...

The idea of preconditioning is usually associated with solution techniques for solving linear systems or eigenvalue problems. It refers to a general method by which the original system is transformed into one which admits the same solution but which is easier to solve. Following this principle we consider in this paper techniques for preconditioning the matrix exponential operator, e A y 0 , us...
