摘要
Edge-based data structures are used to improve computational efficiency of inexact Newton methods for solving finite element non-linear solid mechanics problems on unstructured meshes. Edge-based data structures are employed to store the stiffness matrix coefficients and to compute sparse matrix-vector products needed in the inner iterative driver of the inexact Newton method. Numerical experiments on three-dimensional plasticity problems have shown that memory and computer time are reduced, respectively, by factors of 4 and 6, compared with solutions using element-by-element storage and matrix-vector products.
