Detailed Description

template<class X, class Y>
class Dune::Richardson< X, Y >

Richardson preconditioner.

Multiply simply by a constant.

Template Parameters

X	Type of the update
Y	Type of the defect

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Richardson() [1/2]

template<class X , class Y >

Dune::Richardson< X, Y >::Richardson ( real_field_type  w = 1.0 )

inline

Constructor.

Constructor gets all parameters to operate the prec.

Parameters

w	The relaxation factor.

Richardson() [2/2]

template<class X , class Y >

Dune::Richardson< X, Y >::Richardson ( const ParameterTree &  configuration )

inline

Constructor.

Parameters

configuration

ParameterTree containing preconditioner parameters.

ParameterTree Key	Meaning
relaxation	The relaxation factor. default=1.0

See ISTL_Factory for the ParameterTree layout and examples.

Member Function Documentation

apply()

template<class X , class Y >

virtual void Dune::Richardson< X, Y >::apply ( X &  v, const Y &  d  )

inlinevirtual

Apply the precondioner.

Apply one step of the preconditioner to the system A(v)=d.

On entry v=0 and d=b-A(x) (although this might not be computed in that way. On exit v contains the update, i.e one step computes \( v = M^{-1} d \) where \( M \) is the approximate inverse of the operator \( A \) characterizing the preconditioner.

Parameters

[out]	v	The update to be computed
	d	The current defect.

Implements Dune::Preconditioner< X, Y >.

post()

template<class X , class Y >

virtual void Dune::Richardson< X, Y >::post ( X &  x )

inlinevirtual

Clean up.

Clean up.

This method is called after the last apply call for the linear system to be solved. Memory may be deallocated safely here. x is the solution of the linear equation.

Parameters

x	The right hand side of the equation.

Implements Dune::Preconditioner< X, Y >.

pre()

template<class X , class Y >

virtual void Dune::Richardson< X, Y >::pre ( X &  x, Y &  b  )

inlinevirtual

Prepare the preconditioner.

Prepare the preconditioner.

A solver solves a linear operator equation A(x)=b by applying one or several steps of the preconditioner. The method pre() is called before the first apply operation. b and x are right hand side and solution vector of the linear system respectively. It may. e.g., scale the system, allocate memory or compute a (I)LU decomposition. Note: The ILU decomposition could also be computed in the constructor or with a separate method of the derived method if several linear systems with the same matrix are to be solved.

Note

if a preconditioner is copied (e.g. for a second thread) again the pre() method has to be called to ensure proper memory management.

X x(0.0);
Y b = ...; // rhs
Preconditioner<X,Y> prec(...);
prec.pre(x,b);   // prepare the preconditioner
prec.apply(x,b); // can be called multiple times now...
prec.post(x);    // cleanup internal state

Parameters

x	The left hand side of the equation.
b	The right hand side of the equation.

Implements Dune::Preconditioner< X, Y >.
