**************************** Matrix RILU Relax Factor **************************** :: Matrix RILU relax factor = ----------------------- Description / Usage ----------------------- This optional card provides a relaxation factor to Aztec to be used in conjunction with preconditioners based on RILU(k,ω) approximate factorization. The input parameter is defined as **fac,** a floating point number ( fac ≥ 0 ) that specifies a relaxation factor. If the *Matrix RILU relax factor* card is omitted, the default is **1.** ------------ Examples ------------ Following is a sample card: :: Matrix RILU relax factor = 0.5 ------------------------- Technical Discussion ------------------------- Some limiting values for fac provide specific behavior: * for a value of zero, the ILU(k) is obtained * for a value of one, the MILU(k) is obtained. The value of *k* is set by the *Matrix graph fillin* card.
