Solver selection

Some general guidelines to choose the correct solver for a problem are:

• For 1D problems, direct solvers are usually recommended.
• For 2D problems, direct solvers are often the most efficient. However other options could be preferable.
• For 3D problems, iterative solvers with appropriate preconditioners or domain decomposition methods are recommended.
