Analytic Preconditioners for the Iterative Solution of Elastic Scattering Problems

چکیده
We construct and analyze a family of well-conditioned boundary integral equations for the Krylov iterative solution of three-dimensional elastic scattering problems by a bounded rigid obstacle. We develop a new potential theory using a rewriting of the Somigliana integral representation formula. From these results, we generalize to linear elasticity the well-known Brakhage-Werner and Combined Field Integral Equation formulations. We use a suitable approximation of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann (DtN) map as a regularizing operator in the proposed boundary integral equations. The construction of the approximate DtN map is inspired by the On-Surface Radiation Conditions method. We prove that the associated integral equations are uniquely solvable and possess very interesting spectral properties. Promising numerical experiments with the elastic sphere are provided.

Analytic Preconditioners for the Boundary Integral Solution of the Scattering of Acoustic Waves by Open Surfaces
This study is devoted to some numerical issues in the boundary integral solution of the scattering of an acoustic wave by an open surface. More precisely, it deals with the construction of a cheap analytical preconditioner to enhance the iterative solving of this kind of equation. Detailed attention is paid to bring out the reasons that make this construction much more difficult than for closed...

This paper deals with scrutinizing the convergence properties of iterative methods to solve linear system of equations. Recently, several types of the preconditioners have been applied for ameliorating the rate of convergence of the Accelerated Overrelaxation (AOR) method. In this paper, we study the applicability of a general class of the preconditioned iterative methods under certain conditio...

We study robust, preconditioned, iterative solution methods for largescale linear systems of equations, arising from different applications in geophysics and geotechnics. The first type of linear systems studied here, which are dense, arise from a boundary element type of discretization of crack propagation in brittle material. Numerical experiment show that simple algebraic preconditioning str...

We present a parallel preconditioning method for the iterative solution of the time-harmonic elastic wave equation which makes use of higher-order spectral elements to reduce pollution error. In particular, the method leverages perfectly matched layer boundary conditions to efficiently approximate the Schur complement matrices of a block LDL factorization. Both sequential and parallel versions ...
متن کاملLine Iterative Methods for Cyclically Reduced Discrete Convection-Diffusion Problems
An analytic and empirical study of line iterative methods for solving the discrete convection-diffusion equation is performed. The methodology consists of performing one step of the cyclic reduction method, followed by iteration on the resulting reduced system using line orderings of the reduced grid. Two classes of iterative methods are considered: block stationary methods, such as the block G...
