Dear Petsc-Users,
I am trying to use PETSc to solve a set of linear equations arising from
Naviers equation (elastodynamics) in the frequency domain.
The frequency dependency of the problem requires that the system
[-omega^2M + K]u = F
where M and K are constant, square, positive definite matrices (mass and
stiffness respectively) is solved for each frequency omega of interest.
K is a complex matrix, including material damping.
I have written a PETSc program which solves this problem for a small (1000
degrees of freedom) test problem on one or several processors, but it keeps
crashing when I try it on my full scale (in the order of 10^6 degrees of
freedom) problem.
The program crashes at KSPSetUp() and from what I can see in the error
messages, it appears as if it consumes too much memory.
I would guess that similar problems have occurred in this mail-list, so I am
hoping that someone can push me in the right direction...
