Abstract
In this paper we study and compare some preconditioned conjugate gradient methods for solving large-scale higher-order finite element schemes approximating two- and three-dimensional linear elasticity boundary value problems. The preconditioners discussed in this paper are derived from hierarchical splitting of the finite element space first proposed by O. Axelsson and I. Gustafsson. We especially focus our attention to the implicit construction of preconditioning operators by means of some fixpoint iteration process including multigrid techniques. Many numerical experiments confirm the efficiency of these preconditioners in comparison with classical direct methods most frequently used in practice up to now.
