Preconditioning for Boundary Integral Equations

Preconditioning for boundary integral equations

Preconditioning for Boundary Integral Equations

Abstract

This paper discusses three alternative preconditioning techniques to solve 3-D, mixed boundary conditions, Laplace equation problems. The direct boundary element equations are tested in conjunction with three iterative solution methods; namely, conjugate gradient on the normal equations, CGS of \textit{P. Sonneveld} [SIAM J. Sci. Stat. Comput. 10, No. 1, 36-52 (1989; Zbl 0666.65029)] and GMRES of \textit{Y. Saad} and \textit{M. H. Schultz} [ibid. 7, 856-869 (1986; Zbl 0599.65018)]. Emphasis is given to the condition number reduction and test examples indicate the improvement obtained by the alternative procedures. The paper is highly recommended to those working on this important field of improving solvers for dense and unsymmetric systems of equations arising from the boundary element method.
