INTERACTION MODELING INMECHANIZED TUNNELING

The fi nite element method (FEM) has become an established technique for numerical so-lution of differential equations. This course begins with a short introduction to large-scale scientifi c computing in FEM applications. Iterative methods play an important role in FEM simulations. Numerous properties of the problem may affect the effi ciency of the solution. A particular focus of the presentation is on algorithms for the solution of large-scale sparse FEM matrices.

Part II provides a short introduction to algebraic multilevel iteration (AMLI) methods. The optimality issues are in the spirit of computational complexity of the related preconditioning (PCG or GCG) algo-rithms. The robustness of the AMLI methods with respect to mesh and/or coeffi cient anisotropy, stron-gly heterogeneous materials, etc. will be discussed. The almost incompressible linear elasticity and the time dependent Navier-Stokes problem are selected as two representative coupled problems. The last lecture will consider some applications of AMLI and
