Scalable Hybrid Schwarz Domain Decomposition Algorithms to Solve Advection-Diffusion Problems

Chakravarty, Lopamudra

Abstract Details

2018, PHD, Kent State University, College of Arts and Sciences / Department of Mathematical Sciences.
The solution of the linear system of algebraic equations that arise from the finite element discretization of the advection-diffusion equation is considered here. In this dissertation, we study three hybrid Schwarz domain decomposition algorithms to solve this non-symmetric problem. We use the GMRES and BiCGStab methods to solve the resulting preconditioned system. In each iteration step, we solve a coarse finite element problem and a number of local problems depending on the algorithm. Local problems are solved in non-overlapping subdomains and ring-shaped overlapping subdomains into which the original domain is subdivided. These three algorithms combine the advantages of additive and multiplicative methods. We show that these algorithms are scalable in the sense that the rate of convergence is independent of the mesh size and the number of subdomains. The performance of these algorithms in two dimensions is illustrated by numerical experiments.
