Diagonal PCG Method for FE Solution of 3D Biot's Consolidation Problem

Article Preview

Abstract:

To solve large symmetric indefinite linear systems in finite element discretization of 3D Biot's consolidation equations.This paper adopted diagonal preconditioned conjugate gradient method to FE program. Several numerical examples show that the diagonal PCG method are significantly more efficient than direct solution method for large-scale symmetric indefinite linear systems.
