The efficiencies of different time-stepping schemes and associated algebraic system solvers for transient eddy current computations are assessed. For 2-D problems, the direct methods nested dissection (ND) and quotient minimum degree (QMD) are shown to be preferable to the incomplete Cholesky conjugate-gradient (ICCG) method, provided enough memory is available. The multilevel preconditions (MP) method is highly efficient for magnetically homogeneous problems both in 2-D and 3-D. The efficiency of multilevel methods for inhomogeneous problems, although proven theoretically, needs further practical investigation.>
