The method of least squares, discovered by Gauss in 1795, is a principal tool for reducing the influence of errors when fitting a mathematical model to given observations. Applications arise in many areas of science and engineering. The increased use of automatic data capturing frequently leads to large-scale least squares problems. Such problems can be solved by using recent developments in preconditioned iterative methods and in sparse QR factorization. The first edition of Numerical Methods for Least Squares Problems was the leading reference on the topic for many years. The updated second edition stands out compared to other books on this subject because it provides an in-depth and up-to...
This IMA Volume in Mathematics and its Applications LINEAR ALGEBRA, MARKOV CHAINS, AND QUEUEING MODELS is based on the proceedings of a workshop which was an integral part of the 1991-92 IMA program on "Applied Linear Algebra". We thank Carl Meyer and R.J. Plemmons for editing the proceedings. We also take this opportunity to thank the National Science Founda tion, whose financial support made the workshop possible. A vner Friedman Willard Miller, Jr. xi PREFACE This volume contains some of the lectures given at the workshop Lin ear Algebra, Markov Chains, and Queueing Models held January 13-17, 1992, as part of the Year of Applied Linear Algebra at the Institute for Mathematics and its Appl...
The aim of the present book is to show, in a broad and yet deep way, the state of the art in computational science and engineering. Examples of topics addressed are: fast and accurate numerical algorithms, model-order reduction, grid computing, immersed-boundary methods, and specific computational methods for simulating a wide variety of challenging problems, problems such as: fluid-structure interaction, turbulent flames, bone-fracture healing, micro-electro-mechanical systems, failure of composite materials, storm surges, particulate flows, and so on. The main benefit offered to readers of the book is a well-balanced, up-to-date overview over the field of computational science and engineering, through in-depth articles by specialists from the separate disciplines.
A succinct and complete explanation of Krylov subspace methods for solving systems of equations Krylov Subspace Methods with Application in Incompressible Fluid Flow Solvers is the most current and complete guide to the implementation of Krylov subspace methods for solving systems of equations with different types of matrices. Written in the simplest language possible and eliminating ambiguities, the text is easy to follow for post-grad students and applied mathematicians alike. The book covers a breadth of topics, including: The different methods used in solving the systems of equations with ill-conditioned and well-conditioned matrices The behavior of Krylov subspace methods in the solution of systems with ill-posed singular matrices Expertly supported with the addition of a companion website hosting computer programs of appendices The book includes executable subroutines and main programs that can be applied in CFD codes as well as appendices that support the results provided throughout the text. There is no other comparable resource to prepare the reader to use Krylov subspace methods in incompressible fluid flow solvers.
Results of research into large scale eigenvalue problems are presented in this volume. The papers fall into four principal categories:novel algorithms for solving large eigenvalue problems, novel computer architectures, computationally-relevant theoretical analyses, and problems where large scale eigenelement computations have provided new insight.
This book offers a comprehensive presentation of some of the most successful and popular domain decomposition preconditioners for finite and spectral element approximations of partial differential equations. It places strong emphasis on both algorithmic and mathematical aspects. It covers in detail important methods such as FETI and balancing Neumann-Neumann methods and algorithms for spectral element methods.
Proceedings -- Parallel Computing.
The aim of these proceedings is to help disseminate the knowledge about the potential of parallel computing. The contents give an overview of various European sites pioneering the Connection Machine and convey a flavour of the different applications that run efficiently on this parallel architecture.
