Abstract
An adaptive solver for large-scale hierarchic finite element systems h as been developed. A decision-making methodology aimed at selecting an optimal solution strategy on the basis of estimated conditioning, spa rsity and memory requirements for a given problem has been devised. Nu merical experiments have been conducted on selected shell and 3-D prob lems in the range of 1000-100 000 degrees of freedom. (C) 1997 by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
