Abstract: We investigate the formulation and implementation of new explicit group iterative methods in solving the two-dimensional Poisson equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions. The methods are derived from a fourth order compact nine point finite difference discretization. The methods are compared with the existing second order standard five point formula to show the dramatic improvement in computed accuracy. Numerical experiments are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods.
Abstract: In a previous work, we presented the numerical
solution of the two dimensional second order telegraph partial
differential equation discretized by the centred and rotated five-point
finite difference discretizations, namely the explicit group (EG) and
explicit decoupled group (EDG) iterative methods, respectively. In
this paper, we utilize a domain decomposition algorithm on these
group schemes to divide the tasks involved in solving the same
equation. The objective of this study is to describe the development
of the parallel group iterative schemes under OpenMP programming
environment as a way to reduce the computational costs of the
solution processes using multicore technologies. A detailed
performance analysis of the parallel implementations of points and
group iterative schemes will be reported and discussed.
