Foil 18 Iterative Methods for Solving Partial Differential Equations

From Further PDE Solvers for the NAS Benchmarks CPSP713 Case studies in Computational Science -- Spring Semester 1996. by Geoffrey C. Fox


Point Jacobi
Point Gauss-Seidel
Over Relaxation
  • for Jacobi
  • for Gauss-Seidel called SOR -- Successive Overrelaxation
  • SSOR or Symmetric Successive Over Relaxation
Conjugate Gradient
  • This important method has several variants for Special circumstances which are well covered in the Template book
ALL of these except SSOR covered in CPS615 and in Template book
  • SSOR exemplified in CPS713 NAS Benchmark Discussion
