A simple Geometric Multi-Grid Julia implementation for a 2D Poisson's equation.

This Julia repo compares the performance of different linear solvers available in classical Julia packages with a simple Geometric Multi Grid (GMG) solver adapted from Harald Köstler's implementation:

"Multigrid HowTo: A simple Multigrid solver in C++ in less than 200 lines of code" https://www10.cs.fau.de/publications/reports/TechRep_2008-03.pdf

The src/poisson2DGMG and src/GSSmoother.jl files contain the Julia implementation of a solver for Poisson's equation defined on a 2D unit square with n x n steps and a basic FD scheme. Boundary conditions can be chosen to be of Dirichlet or Neumann type for the 4 edges of the square (left,right,bottom,top). One can launch the resolution of the Poisson's equation with a collection of solvers via the command (from this directory):

] activate .
include("test/poisson2D.jl")

By default the solver is launched for n=128 and DNDN boundary conditions. These values can be modified in the go() function defined in test/poisson2D.jl. Note that n must be a power of two.

function go()
    n=128 #Choose a power of two
    #Choose boundary conditions 
    # bc=(neumann,neumann,neumann,neumann)
    bc=(dirichlet,neumann,dirichlet,neumann)
    ...

The code should return a collection of measurements corresponding to the CPU time required by each solver, the number of iterations for the iterative solvers as well as the corresponding residual. The CPU time the init_time corresponds to the time required by the solver construction for a given matrix, and the solver_time corresponds to the time required by the solution of a linear system with a given RHS.

One can see in particular that the present GMG solver (GMG_GSSmoother) outperforms the available AMG solvers (Algebraic Multi-Grid) by a large factor (x10). The TTSolver is a direct Poisson solver which is restricted to separable Poisson coefficients.

The code also produces some convergence curves and bar charts for comparing CPU times.

Note that the full Neumann case can be treated by several iterative methods (including the present GMG). The direct SparseLU is also able to treat this case via a regularization applied to the Laplacian operator.

A simple CFD application of the solver (Lid Cavity).

Finally the GMG solver is used in a Julia translation of Benjamin Seibold's classical MIT18086_NAVIERSTOKES matlab implementation that simulates a square lid cavity. See the details here: http://math.mit.edu/~gs/cse/codes/mit18086_navierstokes.pdf

From this directory run the following command to launch this 2D CFD simulation :

] activate .
include("test/mit_implicit.jl")
