Abstract

Numerical approximations to the linear elasticity are traditionally based on the finite element method. In this paper we propose a new formulation based on the cubic spline collocation method for linear elastic problem on the unit square. We present several numerical results for the eigenvalues of the matrix represented by cubic collocation method and preconditioner matrix which is preconditioned by FEM and FDM. Finally we present the numerical solution for some example equation.
