PETSc version 3.17.5
MatCreateBlockMat
Creates a new matrix in which each block contains a uniform-size sequential Mat object
Synopsis
#include "petscmat.h"
PetscErrorCode MatCreateBlockMat(MPI_Comm comm,PetscInt m,PetscInt n,PetscInt bs,PetscInt nz,PetscInt *nnz, Mat *A)
Collective
Input Parameters
| comm | - MPI communicator
|
| m | - number of rows
|
| n | - number of columns
|
| bs | - size of each submatrix
|
| nz | - expected maximum number of nonzero blocks in row (use PETSC_DEFAULT if not known)
|
| nnz | - expected number of nonzers per block row if known (use NULL otherwise)
|
Output Parameter
Notes
Matrices of this type are nominally-sparse matrices in which each "entry" is a Mat object. Each Mat must
have the same size and be sequential. The local and global sizes must be compatible with this decomposition.
For matrices containing parallel submatrices and variable block sizes, see MATNEST.
