In this paper, the ‘second‐order’ incomplete triangular factorization (Kaporin, 1998) is considered as a preconditioner for the CG method. Some refinements of the original algorithm are proposed and investigated, which give rise to a more efficient modified incomplete Cholesky 2nd‐order (MIC2) type preconditionings. Numerical results are given for a set of real‐life large‐scale SPD linear systems arising in the finite element modelling of linear elasticity problems which clearly indicate the superiority of the MIC2 preconditionings.
