[petsc-dev] Possible New Ksp Tests For PETSc

[Travis Austin]

Hi,

I have a DOE SBIR where we are looking at solving high-order finite element problems with a sparse preconditioner that is
inverted using BoomerAMG.  As a result of this work, we have developed several 2D and 3D examples that use high-order
finite elements, i.e., the order of the approximation is an input.  We have built these examples to closely conform with example

src/ksp/ksp/examples/tests/ex4.c

which solves Poisson's equation on a square using bilinear finite elements.   Is there any interest from the PETSc team to 
include this example in the set of ksp examples.  Our hope was that by making this available to users through the test suite
that new solvers could be tested for these types of problems.

Thanks,
Travis Austin
