public class Matrix
extends java.lang.Object

Sparse Matrix, simetric or not. This class is in charge of the data and methods related to matrix operations.

The disperse storage is a technique that allows storing large matrices in memory by using much less RAM. The method consists in working only with the non null elements: the matrices used in finite elements, finite differences, and other numerical methods have many elements as nulls.

The Matrix is stored in three vectors: elem, ipos and jpos. They are public to allow other classes to implement optimized algorithms.

For more information about sparse matrices consult the program manual.

Revised for ADFC v2.0

Field Detail

elem

public double[] elem

Contains the value of the elements not null. Therefore, elem[n] is the value of element not null n-esimo.

jpos

public int[] jpos

elem[n] indicates in which column it is found the element not null n-esimo.

ipos

public int[] ipos

ipos[n] indicates in which position of elem and jpos starts the row n-esima of the matrix.

simetric

public boolean simetric

Indicates if the matrix is stored using its simetry. If so, it corresponds with the lower triangule.

Constructor Detail

Matrix

public Matrix(double[] as,
              int[] aipos,
              int[] ajpos,
              boolean sim)

constructor. If as is null, means that the constructor should reserve the memory for as (so in this case, a new empty matrix).

Parameters:

as - elements in compact format.

aipos - vector Ipos (NVPN)

ajpos - vector Jpos (NNVI)

sim - simetric or not

Matrix

public Matrix(Matrix matrix,
              boolean swallow)

copy constructor. Constructs a new object duplicating the contents of the original matrix. If especifica swallow, the copy of ipos and jpos is not by value, but by reference. This way, we can have two identical matrices without duplicating RAM in those vectors. Elem is always duplicated, to allow modifications without lateral effects.

Parameters:

matrix - matrix to copy.

swallow - copy swallow (no duplication of RAM for the structure ipos/jpos)
