Theorem 6-1: Consider the linearization of a set of equations: All A An xl bl A2 A22 A2n X2 b2 I Ani An2 Ann xn bn where the partitions of x and A are such that within each partition all variables are either solved by Gauss-Seidel or Newton-Raphson. For a blockwise Gauss-Seidel solution, the equations can be expressed as X1 a1! ,12 n X1 X2 c21 "22 c2n X2 .+ 1TT Xn nl Cin2 nn Xn For a solution procedure composed of blocks of Gauss-Seidel and Newton- Raphson convergence schemes, solved by Gauss-Seidel in a blockwise fashion, the following formulas indicate how to calculate the c-- partitions from the coefficient matrix A. For Gauss-Seidel partitions: i-i 1) aii = -Lii-1[Uii+ Aika"ki] k=1 2) ij i-1 aij = -Lii-l[ 1 Aikakj] k=1 For Newton-Raphson partitions: 4) aii = 0
