Abstract

Least-squares spectral element methods (LSQSEM) are based on two important and successful numerical methods: spectral/hp element methods and least-squares finite element methods. Least-squares methods lead to symmetric and positive definite algebraic systems which circumvent the Ladyzhenskaya–Babuska–Brezzi (LBB) stability condition and consequently allow the use of equal order interpolation polynomials for all variables. In this paper, we present results obtained with a parallel implementation of the least-squares spectral element solver on a distributed memory machine (Cray T3E) and on a virtual shared memory machine (SGI Origin 3800).
