Complexity of Vectorized Solution of Two-Dimensional Finite Element Grids.

Abstract

The dissected direct solution of finite element grids has been shown to be more efficient than band-related methods. In this paper that vector processors can be used to solve such grids despite their apparent disassociated structure. Operation counts and vector counts are given as a function of grid size and order of rectangular element. (Author)
