Abstract:

Presents an implementation of the algebraic multigrid method. It can work in two ways: as pure multigrid method and as a pre-conditioner for the conjugate gradient method. Shows applications of the iterative solvers for problems in linear and non-linear elasticity. Shows the range of possible applications with different examples with regular and non-regular meshes and three-dimensional problems.
