An iterative algorithm is presented for solving the extended Sylvester-conjugate matrix equation. By this iterativemethod, the solvability of thematrix equation can be determined automatically. When the matrix equation is consistent, a solution can be obtained within finite iteration steps for any initial values in the absence of round-off errors. The algorithm is also generalized to solve a mo...

The composite step biconjugate gradient method (CSBCG) is a simple modification of the standard biconjugate gradient algorithm (BCG) which smooths the sometimes erratic convergence of BCG by computing only a subset of the iterates. We show that 2 × 2 composite steps can cure breakdowns in the biconjugate gradient method caused by (near) singularity of principal submatrices of the tridiagonal ma...

in this paper it is attempted to predict the off-design performance of a jet engine. after a review of the governing equations, the off-design performance is investigated by two methods. in the first method, the component characteristic curves of the gas turbines are used. in the second method some design point parameters and the reference state conditions are employed. the results obtained by ...
