This approach is a prerequisite to implement later an efficient Poisson solver, such as a multigrid Poisson's equation. If you don’t get a symmetric matrix with Poisson’s equation, you’re doing it wrong. The weak form is the starting point for the finite discretization of the Poisson equation. Solving Poisson's equation is typically one of the most expensive components of these simulations. The discrete system can be solved using iterative methods like Jacobi or Gauss-Seidel iteration.

GPU hardware architecture is especially suitable for carrying out Conventionally, the singular charges are distributed to the surrounding grid points [19], [25], [45], [40] or approximated by the hat functions [35]. 3 Classical Iterative Methods It reduces the dimensionality and is, for instance, very popular in chemical physics to solve the Poisson-Boltzmann equation. Essentially, the system is composed of the vorticity transport equation (9) and the Poisson equation for streamfunction (15). FVM uses a volume integral formulation of the problem with a finite partitioning set of volumes to discretize the equations. In this paper, we consider the solution of the Poisson equation on an irregular 2-D domain, subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions.

We show that the Poisson equation can be reformulated into an elliptic equation which does not degenerate in the quasineutral limit and, in this limit, provides the equation for the quasineutral potential. Fast Fourier transform (FFT) is one of the most successful fast Poisson solvers. , the steady-state solution of a vibrating membrane (in the case d = 2 with shape Ω) fixed at the boundary, and When we multiply the Poisson equation from the right with a test function $\phi \in V$, we get that $$ (-\Delta u, \phi) = (f, To implement this discretization in code, we construct 3 classes: the DoF (degree of freedom), which corresponds to the point where two grid lines intersect, 7. For the derivation, the material parameters may be inhomogeneous, locally dependent but not a function of the electric field. This also means that Poisson is probably a poor test case for non-symmetric iterative methods — even if you discretize it badly and get a non-symmetric matrix, it is close to being similar to a symmetric matrix (because it is converging to a symmetric operator as you refine the Finite Elements: elliptic PDEs (2D Poisson equation) A classical example of a nonlinear elliptic PDE comes from the description of the deformation of elastic (material) bodies.
