If the type doesn't change then MatSetType() won't do anything. You can try setting the type to BAIJ and then setting the type back to AIJ.

The sparsity pattern of the jacobian matrix needs to change at each nonlinear iteration (because the elements which are in contact can change), so I tried to deal with this by calling MatSeqAIJSetPreallocation and MatMPIAIJSetPreallocation during each iteration in order to update the preallocation.<br>
