A Fourier Continuation Method for the Solution of Elliptic Eigenvalue Problems in General Domains
Table 1
Computational time required for evaluation of the differential operator for four test cases, with breakdown of computing time per calculation, and the number of calculations needed for the eigenvalue solver to converge to the required tolerance. All computations were performed on a 2.67 GHz Intel Xeon processor. (a) Square with fixed edges; (b) square with one free edge; (c) disk with fixed boundary; (d) disk with free boundary.
