Abstract

The paper is devoted to the numerical solution of both elliptic and parabolic problems by overlapping Schwarz methods. It demonstrates that while the two-level Schwarz method is necessary for the efficient solution of discrete elliptic problems, the one-level Schwarz method can be sufficiently efficient in the parabolic case. The paper includes results from numerical simulations of a large-scale model of the performance of a nuclear waste repository.
