✦ Synopsis


We describe a general-purpose parallel code for computing accurate solutions to large computationally demanding, 3D, nonlinear magnetostatic problems. The code, CORAL, is based on a volume integral equation formulation. Using an IBM SP parallel computer and iterative solution methods, we successfully solved the dense linear systems inherent in such formulations. A key component of our work was the use of the PETSc library, which provides parallel portability and access to the latest linear algebra solution technology.

The paper is devoted to an approximation of the solution of Maxwell's equations in three-dimensional space. We present two methods which couple a ÿnite element method inside the magnetic materials with a boundary integral method which uses Poincarà e-Steklov's operator to describe the exterior domai
