Abstract

A combined iteration algorithm based on the bordering and conjugate gradient methods is proposed to solve systems of linear equations generated by the finite element method in the plate bending problem. The numerical results for the analysis of the convergence rate of the iterative process are presented in the solution of model problems using a classical and modified algorithm of the method of conjugate gradients. The possibility of acceleration of the iterative algorithm is shown.
