Implicit equation solving

Dr B.M. Smith (Smith)

When I want to have a solver that must solve for a vector implicitly defined, but which can be written explicitly by matrix inversion, is this possible? Can I write an implicit equation and request foam to solve for a particular vector field within the equation? Or rather must one write all equations to be solved in explicit form, and if so, when using the expression "inv(M)" to invert a matrix M, if M is a complicated sum of products of tensors, say "M=A+div(nu, U)" for example, can one write combined expressions as equation terms such as "inv(A+div(nu, U))", or must one separate such operations by first solving the field eqn for M on the mesh and then later solve the eqn involving the inverse? (I'd like to get some hints before committing to writing solver before I commit to trial and error testing.)

Thanks in advance for any help,
Blair.
