Benchmark cases for linear systems and scalability analysis

Post by raback »

Hi All,

We had a summer trainee to look at the scalability of some canonical equations in Elmer. The hope is to provide people with some insight on what solvers to use in the different cases. Often people go with some settings they have inherited but choosing a good linear solver strategy is often the easiest way to speed up the simulations. Hence having some guidelines to help in this process may be valuable.

For more info read about the benchmarks here:
