Padua Research Archive, l’archivio istituzionale della produzione scientifica dell’Università degli Studi di Padova, ha lo scopo di raccogliere, documentare, conservare e pubblicare, anche ad accesso aperto, i prodotti della ricerca dell’Ateneo. Padua Research Archive utilizza la piattaforma IRIS (Institutional Research Information System) sviluppata da Cineca.
EnglishConstraint preconditioners have proved very efficient for the solution of ill-conditioned saddle point problems in a sequential computing environment. Their implementation on parallel computers, however, is not straightforward because of their inherent sequentiality. The present paper describes a novel parallel inexact constraint preconditioner (ParICP) based on the use of the BFSAI-IC preconditioner. The ParICP performance is experimented with in large size saddle-point problems arising from the Finite Element (FE) simulation of coupled consolidation in saturated porous media, proving a scalable and efficient implementation of the constraint preconditioning for high performance computing. ParICP appears to be a very robust algorithm for solving ill-conditioned large size saddle-point problems in a parallel computing environment.

| Abstract: | Constraint preconditioners have proved very efficient for the solution of ill-conditioned saddle point problems in a sequential computing environment. Their implementation on parallel computers, however, is not straightforward because of their inherent sequentiality. The present paper describes a novel parallel inexact constraint preconditioner (ParICP) based on the use of the BFSAI-IC preconditioner. The ParICP performance is experimented with in large size saddle-point problems arising from the Finite Element (FE) simulation of coupled consolidation in saturated porous media, proving a scalable and efficient implementation of the constraint preconditioning for high performance computing. ParICP appears to be a very robust algorithm for solving ill-conditioned large size saddle-point problems in a parallel computing environment. |
