Hi,
For some time, I have been solving a nonlinear multi-physics problem
using deal.ii linear solvers at each iteration. But, due to the
inherent nonlinearity, the number of iterations required is
significantly high. So, I am planning to use Trilinos NOX (for its
line search and trust region methods) and Trilinos TEKO (for the
multi-physics preconditioners).
I believe deal.ii doesn't have wrappers for these two specific
packages. Is their any alternative?.
If their is no alternative, I am considering writing my own wrapper to
these packages (on the lines of deal.ii supplied Trilinos wrappers),
and link the additional Trilinos libraries by modifying the default
deal.ii makefile linking options. Are their any deal.ii specific
potential compilation/linking issues I should be aware of?.
Thanks,
