An Adaptive Choice of Primal Constraints for Bddc Domain Decomposition Algorithms
نویسندگان
چکیده
An adaptive choice for primal spaces, based on parallel sums, is developed for BDDC deluxe methods and elliptic problems in three dimensions. The primal space, which form the global, coarse part of the domain decomposition algorithm, and which is always required for any competitive algorithm, is defined in terms of generalized eigenvalue problems related to subdomain edges and faces; selected eigenvectors associated to the smallest eigenvalues are used to enhance the primal spaces. This selection can be made automatic by using tolerance parameters specified for the subdomain faces and edges. Numerical results verify the results and provide a comparison with primal spaces commonly used. They include results for cubic subdomains as well as subdomains obtained by a mesh partitioner. Different distributions for the coefficients are also considered, with constant coefficients, highly random values, and channel distributions.

FETI–DP, BDDC, and Block Cholesky Methods
Two popular non-overlapping domain decomposition methods, the FETI–DP and BDDC algorithms, are reformulated using Block Cholesky factorizations, an approach which can provide a useful framework for the design of domain decomposition algorithms for solving symmetric positive definite linear system of equations. Instead of introducing Lagrange multipliers to enforce the coarse level, primal conti...
متن کاملBDDC Algorithms with deluxe scaling and adaptive selection of primal constraints for Raviart-Thomas vector fields
A BDDC domain decomposition preconditioner is defined by a coarse component, expressed in terms of primal constraints, a weighted average across the interface between the subdomains, and local components given in terms of solvers of local subdomain problems. BDDC methods for vector field problems discretized with Raviart-Thomas finite elements are introduced. The methods are based on a new type...
متن کاملAdaptive Selection of Primal Constraints for Isogeometric BDDC Deluxe Preconditioners
Isogeometric analysis has been introduced as an alternative to finite element methods in order to simplify the integration of CAD software and the discretization of variational problems of continuum mechanics. In contrast with the finite element case, the basis functions of isogeometric analysis are often not nodal. As a consequence, there are fat interfaces which can easily lead to an increase...
متن کاملBDDC Algorithms for Incompressible Stokes Equations
The purpose of this paper is to extend the BDDC (balancing domain decomposition by constraints) algorithm to saddle-point problems that arise when mixed finite element methods are used to approximate the system of incompressible Stokes equations. The BDDC algorithms are iterative substructuring methods, which form a class of domain decomposition methods based on the decomposition of the domain ...
متن کاملBDDC for Nonsymmetric Positive Definite and Symmetric Indefinite Problems
The balancing domain decomposition methods by constraints are extended to solving both nonsymmetric, positive definite and symmetric, indefinite linear systems. In both cases, certain nonstandard primal constraints are included in the coarse problems of BDDC algorithms to accelerate the convergence. Under the assumption that the subdomain size is small enough, a convergence rate estimate for th...
