An investigation into direct sparse matrix solution schemes in the finite element method

Includes bibliographical references. === The application of the finite element method invariably involves the solution of large systems of sparse linear algebraic equations. The solution of these systems often represents a significant or even dominant component of the total solution time. Various sp...
