MULTILEVEL ITERATIVE TECHNIQUE AND AGGREGATION CONCEPT WITH SEMIANALYTICAL PRECONDITIONING FOR SOLVING BOUNDARY-VALUE-PROBLEMS

Some iterative multi-level approaches for solving large-scale finite-element elliptic problems are proposed. It is suggested that these approaches be used in combination with an aggregation technique. On the basis of the aggregation concept a new efficient preconditioning procedure in the inner iterative scheme of the algorithm is developed. This procedure is derived from the fundamental solution of a corresponding elliptic problem. The efficiency of the approaches is demonstrated by numerical examples.
