On Symmetric Part PCG for Mixed Elliptic Problems

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNTCS,volume 3743))

Abstract

The CGM is studied for nonsymmetric elliptic problems with mixed boundary conditions. The mesh independence of the convergence is in focus when symmetric part preconditioning is applied to the FEM discretizations of the BVP. Computations in 2 dimensions are presented to illustrate and complete the theoretical results.
