In practice, the resolution of the ECRE-based system (Eq. (42.7)) is performed directly in two main steps by using MD Nastran®language (DMAP language): decomposition coupled with a forward-backward substitution. However, solving such linear system yields to prohibitive CPU-time because of the decomposition process of ŒA . The decomposition algorithms available in MD Nastran® are suitable for large, sparse, hermitian matrices with a small bandwidth of non-zero terms around the diagonal. However, ECRE equations lead to matrices with large bandwidth of non-zero terms around the diagonal (cf. Fig. 42.5), which precisely makes the decomposition operation prohibitive. Though renumbering techniques are evidently used in this work,3 the decomposition operation is always the heavier one in the process. 3In the case of large number of dofs, Metis renumbering method available in MD Nastran® permits to minimize the decomposition CPU-time.
