We present and study a homographic best approximation problem, which arises in the analysis of waveform relaxation algorithms with optimized transmission conditions. Its solution characterizes in each class of transmission conditions the one with the best performance of the associated waveform relaxation algorithm. We present the particular class of first order transmission conditions in detail...

Waveform relaxation is a numerical method for solving large-scale systems of ordinary differential equations on parallel computers. It differs from standard iterative methods in that it computes the solution on many time levels or along a continuous time interval simultaneously. This paper deals with the acceleration of the standard waveform relaxation method by successive overrelaxation (SOR) ...

The finite difference discretization of the Poisson equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions leads to a large, sparse system of linear equations for the solution values at the interior mesh points. This problem is a popular and useful model problem for performance comparisons of iterative methods for the solution of linear systems. To use the successive overrelaxation (SOR) method in these c...

A class of splitting iterative methods are considered for solving fuzzy system of linear equations, which covers Jacobi, Gauss Seidel, SOR, SSOR and their block variance proposed. Theoretical analysis showed that for a regular splitting, the corresponding iterative method converge to the unique fuzzy solution for any initial vector and fuzzy right hand side vector. Finally, we illustrate our ap...

In this paper, we analyze the potential of using weights for block-asynchronous relaxation methods on GPUs. For this purpose, we introduce different weighting techniques similar to those applied in blocksmoothers for multigrid methods. For test matrices taken from the University of Florida Matrix Collection we report the convergence behavior and the total runtime for the different techniques. A...

Block iterative methods are applied to hydrodynamic simulations of a one-dimensional (1-D) submicrometer semiconductor device. We show that block successive underrelaxation (SUR) converges with a fixed relaxation factor w = 0.13 for simulations at 300 K and w = 0.04 at 77 K . To demonstrate the robustness of the block iterative method, we present numerical simulations of a steady-state electron...

In the present paper, time dependent creep behavior of hollow circular rotating cylinders made of exponentially graded material (EGM) is investigated. Loading is composed of an internal pressure, a distributed temperature field due to steady state heat conduction with convective boundary condition and a centrifugal body force. All the material properties are assumed to be exponentially graded a...

in this letter, the numerical scheme of nonlinear volterra-fredholm integro-differential equations is proposed in a reproducing kernel hilbert space (rkhs). the method is constructed based on the reproducing kernel properties in which the initial condition of the problem is satis ed. the nonlinear terms are replaced by its taylor series. in this technique, the nonlinear volterra-fredholm integr...
