Reducing the bandwidth of sparse symmetric matrices

Cuthill, E., McKee, J.·1969·Proceedings of the 1969 24th national conference on -

Abstract

The finite element displacement method of analyzing structures involves the solution of large systems of linear algebraic equations with sparse, structured, symmetric coefficient matrices. There is a direct correspondence between the structure of the coefficient matrix, called the stiffness matrix in this case, and the structure of the spatial network delineating the element layout. For the efficient solution of these systems of equations, it is desirable to have an automatic nodal numbering (or renumbering) scheme to ensure that the corresponding coefficient matrix will have a narrow bandwidth. This is the problem considered by R. Rosen1. A direct method of obtaining such a numbering scheme is presented. In addition several methods are reviewed and compared.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
