Factorization: School of Engineering of Petroleum

The LU factorization method is used to solve systems of linear equations. It decomposes the coefficient matrix A of the system into two matrices, L and U, such that A = LU. L is a lower triangular matrix with ones on its main diagonal, while U is an upper triangular matrix. This decomposition allows the system Ax = b to be solved by first solving Ly = b and then Ux = y. Solving the two resulting triangular system matrices provides the solution to the original system of linear equations.

FACTORIZATION

LU
This method is a modification of the
method of elimination, also it is known by
the method of Cholesky, decomposition in
factors, of reduction Crout or method of
Cholesky Crout in honor to his
discoverers.
This method serves to obtain the solution
of a system of linear equations, by means
of the decomposition of the matriz of the
system A, in two matrizs; A=LU.

The coefficients matriz A transforms to


the product of two tones L and U, where
L is a top triangular matriz with only one
in every element of his principal diagonal.

Ax = b LUx=b

Ux = Y LY = b

We solve LU = b to obtain the value of Y,
