Multigrid software for elliptic partial differential equations: MUDPACK. Technical note

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5456438

The Technical Note describes the multigrid package MUDPACK which includes Fortran subroutines for efficiently approximating the solution to a variety of linear elliptic partial differential equations. Its purpose is to make the complex collection of integrated numerical procedures known as 'multigrid iteration' available in a user-friendly form to atmospheric scientists and others. The package is introduced in the first section. The second section outlines some of the special features of MUDPACK. The third section describes contents of the package. Section four contains seven examples which illustrate software use and super-computer performance on a variety of problems. A sample documentation is given in the appendix.
