Detailed Description

template<typename MatrixType = SparseMatrix<double>, typename VectorType = ::Vector<double>>
class PreconditionSelector< MatrixType, VectorType >

Selects the preconditioner. The constructor of this class takes the name of the preconditioning and the damping parameter omega of the preconditioning and the use_matrix function takes the matrix that is used by the matrix-builtin precondition functions. Each time, the operator() function is called, this preselected preconditioner, this matrix and this omega is used for the preconditioning. This class is designed for being used as argument of the solve function of a Solver and it covers the selection of all matrix-builtin precondition functions. The selection of other preconditioners, like BlockSOR or ILU should be handled in derived classes by the user.

Usage

The simplest use of this class is the following:

// generate a @p SolverControl and a @p VectorMemory
SolverControl control;
VectorMemory<Vector<double> > memory;
 
// generate a solver
SolverCG<SparseMatrix<double>, Vector<double> > solver(control, memory);
 
// generate a @p PreconditionSelector
PreconditionSelector<SparseMatrix<double>, Vector<double> >
  preconditioning("jacobi", 1.);
 
// give a matrix whose diagonal entries are to be used for the
// preconditioning. Generally the matrix of the linear equation system Ax=b.
preconditioning.use_matrix(A);
 
// call the @p solve function with this preconditioning as last argument
solver.solve(A,x,b,preconditioning);

The same example where also the SolverSelector class is used reads

// generate a @p SolverControl and a @p VectorMemory
SolverControl control;
VectorMemory<Vector<double> > memory;
 
// generate a @p SolverSelector that calls the @p SolverCG
SolverSelector<SparseMatrix<double>, Vector<double> >
  solver_selector("cg", control, memory);
 
// generate a @p PreconditionSelector
PreconditionSelector<SparseMatrix<double>, Vector<double> >
  preconditioning("jacobi", 1.);
 
preconditioning.use_matrix(A);
 
solver_selector.solve(A,x,b,preconditioning);

Now the use of the SolverSelector in combination with the PreconditionSelector allows the user to select both, the solver and the preconditioner, at the beginning of their program and each time the solver is started (that is several times e.g. in a nonlinear iteration) this preselected solver and preconditioner is called.
