Abstract of Nov 26 1996 CPS615 Lecture

From CPS615-Finite Elements(Continued) and Conjugate Gradient Delivered Lectures of CPS615 Basic Simulation Track for Computational Science -- 26 November 96. by Geoffrey C. Fox *
Secs 67.6
1 This covers essentially all the finite element method and its solution using the conjugate gradient method
2 Only the simple 2D Laplace equation using triangular nodes is discussed
3 We stress variational method as an optimization method and you use this analogy to motivate conjugate gradient as an improved steepest descent approach
4 We discuss parallel computing issues for both finite element and conjugate gradient
