Abstract

The key idea of relaxation methods is to reduce, using some iterative process, the solution of some problems posed in a product space V = Π N i = 1 V i (minimization of functionals, solution of systems of equations and/or inequalities, etc.) to the solution of a sequence of subproblems of the same kind, but simpler, since they are posed in the V i .

In this chapter we follow Cea and Glowinski [1] and Glowinski [6].
