Description |
A procedure to assemble only non-zero coeÅcients of a global matrix of Ænite element analysis in a one-dimensional array is proposed. The procedure uses a stencil matrix and a template matrix at intermediate stages to Ænally arrive at the one-dimensional global array. The intermediate operations are done with matrices consisting of only integers. The element matrices are handled only during the Ænal step of the assembly. The procedure is simple and modular. The procedure has been implemented in a computer program and demonstrated using an example problem in the context of h-adaptive reÆned Ænite element meshes. ” 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.
