Foil 3 Abstract of PDE and Iterative Solver CPS615 Module

From CPS615-Basic PDE Solver Discussion and Sparse Matrix Formulation Delivered Lectures of CPS615 Basic Simulation Track for Computational Science -- 8 November 96. by Geoffrey C. Fox *
Secs 33.1
This Introduces the three fundamental types of PDE's -- Elliptic, Parabolic and Hyperbolic and studies the numerical solution of Elliptic Equations
The sparse matrix formulation is used and iterative approachs -- Jacobi, Gauss Seidel and SOR are defined
These are motivated by analogies between equilibrium of diffusive equations and elliptic systems
Eigenvalue analysis is used to discuss convergence of methods
