Abstract
Presents an implementation of the algebraic multigrid method. It can w ork in two ways: as pure multigrid method and as a pre-conditioner for the conjugate gradient method. Shows applications of the iterative so lvers for problems in linear and non-linear elasticity. Shows the rang e of possible applications with different examples with regular and no nregular meshes and three-dimensional problems.
