Abstract

In the early eighties the direct application of a multigrid technique for solving the partial eigenvalue problem of computing few of the smallest eigenvalues and their corresponding eigenvectors of a differential operator was proposed by Brandt, McCormick and Ruge [1]. In the present paper an experimental study of the method for model linear elasticity problems is carried out. Based on these results we give some practical advices for a good choice of multigrid-related parameters.
