Abstract

In this Chapter methods are developed for numerical solution of system of linear equations through taking advantages of the properties of repetitive tridiagonal matrices. A system of linear equations is usually obtained in the final step of many science and engineering problems such as problems involving partial differential equations. In the proposed solutions, the problem is first solved for repetitive tridiagonal matrices and a closed-from relationship is obtained. This relationship is then utilized for the solution of a general matrix through converting the matrix into a repetitive tridiagonal matrix and the remaining matrix.
