Name

Iterative (BasicIterative) — Solve matrix equations approximately and iteratively, without using exta memory.

Synopsis

BasicIterative(tolerance, max_iterations)

Details

  • Base class: BasicMatrixMethod
  • Parameters:

    tolerance
    Largest acceptable relative error in the matrix solution. Type: A real number.
    max_iterations
    Maximum number of iterations to perform. Type: Integer.

Description

BasicIterative is a matrix equation solver used in BasicSolverMode. It uses the ConjugateGradient method for symmetric matrices and the StabilizedBiConjugateGradient method for asymmetric matrices, both of which are iterative methods appropriate for large sparse matrices. In both cases it preconditions the matrix with the ILUT preconditioner.
