The method used for the discretization of symmetric elliptic operators is a piecewise linear continuos Finite Element method with mass-lumpig, which is described in many elementary textbooks on numerical methods for PDEs as, for example, this one: http://www.springer.com/math/book/978-88-470-1070-3 For stabilization of Advection dominated problems the Exponential Fitting approach is used. The description of this method can be found in the same book mentioned above for the 1D case, for references to papers about the 2d and 3d case you can have a look at chapter 5 my PHD thesis (http://mox.polimi.it/it/progetti/pubblicazioni/tesi/de_falco.pdf). For 3D there is also functions that implement the computation of the stiffness matrix with the Orthogonal Subdomain Collocation method described here: http://dx.doi.org/10.1137/S1064827595290711. > This link > http://agora.octave.org/snippet/1bqV > to the example source code doesn't seem to work. Thanks for noting this. That's probably because the Agora database was flushed during the latest update and all snippets were lost :( Sorry for that, Agora is starting to look good but it is still work in progress. I commented out that line on the wiki page for the moment. c. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites. So do we.
