| Abstract | This thesis examines various net or finite difference methods for solving parabolic partial differential equations in one space variable with constant coefficients. Included in this investigation are explicit, implicit and multi-step methods of varying orders of accuracy. These methods are compared with respect to accuracy, speed, efficiency, stability, simplicity of programming and other criteria. A method for the construction of net methods and analyzing the stability and convergence of the methods is briefly discussed. Sample programs for several of the better methods are given in Appendix C. |
