    Notes: The paper presents a generalization of the classical L2-norm weighted least squares method for the numerical solution of a first-order hyperbolic system. This alternative least squares method consists of the minimization of the weighted sum of the L2 residuals for each equation of the system. The order of accuracy of global conservation of each equation of the system is shown to be inversely proportional to the weight associated with the equation. The optimal relative weights between the equations are then determined in order to satisfy global conservation of the energy of the physical system.As an application of the algorithm, the shallow water equations on an irregular domain are first discretized in time and then solved using Laplace modification and the proposed least squares method.

    Notes: This article is concerned with iterative techniques for linear systems of equations arising from a least squares formulation of boundary value problems. In its classical form, the solution of the least squares method is obtained by solving the traditional normal equation. However, for nonsmooth boundary conditions or in the case of refinement at a selected set of interior points, the matrix associated with the normal equation tends to be ill-conditioned. In this case, the least squares method may be formulated as a Powell multiplier method and the equations solved iteratively. Therein we use and compare two different iterative algorithms. The first algorithm is the preconditioned conjugate gradient method applied to the normal equation, while the second is a new algorithm based on the Powell method and formulated on the stabilized dual problem. The two algorithms are first compared on a one-dimensional problem with poorly conditioned matrices. Results show that, for such problems, the new algorithm gives more accurate results. The new algorithm is then applied to a two-dimensional steady state diffusion problem and a boundary layer problem. A comparison between the least squares method of Bramble and Schatz and the new algorithm demonstrates the ability of the new method to give highly accurate results on the boundary, or at a set of given interior collocation points without the deterioration of the condition number of the matrix. Conditions for convergence of the proposed algorithm are discussed. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The least squares collocation (LESCO) method has been formulated to solve differential equations defined over irregular domains using a more convenient orthogonal computational mesh. The LESCO method is described in detail for second-order boundary value problems and applied to the time-dependent diffusion and advection-diffusion equations defined over two-dimensional irregular domains. Particular attention is given to the proper procedure for applying boundary conditions. Accuracy, convergence, and consistency are examined. For cubic elements with arbitrary location of collocation points, the convergence rate is between 3rd and 4th order. The major advantages of this method are reduced input data requirements, a more robust procedure for forming the equations, positive definite matrices, and flexibility in distrbuting errors.
