Abstract
This paper describes an algorithm for parallel assembling of
the stiffness matrix in structural analysis. In this algorithm the
stiffness matrix is assembled by groups of lines related to
each node of the finite element mesh. In this way as each
processor will assemble only the lines related to an specific
group of nodes no synchronisation is required and the task
can be equally distributed among the processors.
