Returns a finite-difference representation of the Laplacian for an array with a user-specified finite difference stencil size. The resulting operator is a sparse matrix designed to act on the vectorisation of the array. The dimensions of the array are assumed to be ordered as [X Y Z].
Contents
Syntax
L=fdlap(npoints,extents,nstenc)
Arguments
dims - a one-element, two-element, or three-element
vector specifying the number of discretisation
points in each dimension of the 1D, 2D, or 3D
array of data that the operator will be acting
on, ordered as [X Y Z].
extents - a one-element, two-element, or three-element
vector specifying the size of each dimension
of the array, ordered as [X Y Z].
nstenc - number of finite-difference stencil points for
the finite-difference approximation; periodic
boundary conditions are used
Outputs
L - a sparse matrix designed to act on the vectori-
zation of the 3D array. The dimensions of that
array are assumed to be ordered as [X Y Z].
