  2. Newton's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_method

    This allowed him to derive a reusable iterative expression for each problem. Finally, in 1740, Thomas Simpson described Newton's method as an iterative method for solving general nonlinear equations using calculus, essentially giving the description above. In the same publication, Simpson also gives the generalization to systems of two ...

  3. Newton–Krylov method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton–Krylov_method

    Newton–Krylov methods are numerical methods for solving non-linear problems using Krylov subspace linear solvers. [1] [2] Generalising the Newton method to systems of multiple variables, the iteration formula includes a Jacobian matrix. Solving this directly would involve calculation of the Jacobian's inverse, when the Jacobian matrix itself ...

  4. Nonlinear conjugate gradient method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonlinear_conjugate...

    Whereas linear conjugate gradient seeks a solution to the linear equation =, the nonlinear conjugate gradient method is generally used to find the local minimum of a nonlinear function using its gradient alone. It works when the function is approximately quadratic near the minimum, which is the case when the function is twice differentiable at ...

  5. Quasilinearization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quasilinearization

    In mathematics, quasilinearization is a technique which replaces a nonlinear differential equation or operator equation (or system of such equations) with a sequence of linear problems, which are presumed to be easier, and whose solutions approximate the solution of the original nonlinear problem with increasing accuracy.

  6. Iterative method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iterative_method

    In the absence of rounding errors, direct methods would deliver an exact solution (for example, solving a linear system of equations = by Gaussian elimination). Iterative methods are often the only choice for nonlinear equations. However, iterative methods are often useful even for linear problems involving many variables (sometimes on the ...

  7. Relaxation (iterative method) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relaxation_(iterative_method)

    Relaxation methods are used to solve the linear equations resulting from a discretization of the differential equation, for example by finite differences. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] [ 4 ] Iterative relaxation of solutions is commonly dubbed smoothing because with certain equations, such as Laplace's equation , it resembles repeated application of a local ...

  8. Matrix-free methods - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix-free_methods

    It is generally used in solving non-linear equations like Euler's equations in computational fluid dynamics. Matrix-free conjugate gradient method has been applied in the non-linear elasto-plastic finite element solver. [7] Solving these equations requires the calculation of the Jacobian which is costly in terms of CPU time and storage. To ...

  9. Powell's dog leg method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Powell's_dog_leg_method

    Powell's dog leg method, also called Powell's hybrid method, is an iterative optimisation algorithm for the solution of non-linear least squares problems, introduced in 1970 by Michael J. D. Powell. [1] Similarly to the Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm, it combines the Gauss–Newton algorithm with gradient descent, but it uses an explicit trust ...
