Abstrakt: Many engineering problems require the numerical solution of several hundred to a few thousand simultaneous equations of the Laplace, Poisson, or Fourier types. These equations occur in the solution of many sci entific problems on heat flow, fluid flow, diffusion, and structural problems, etc. There are many methods available for solving these problems; however, there has been little said about core allocations, execu tion times, and programming difficulty of each method. This paper compares five of the best known methods in terms of core allocation, execution times, and program ming difficulty. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
