Abstract

The solution of simultaneous linear algebraic equations by the basic relaxation method is described in detail and the use of short-cut methods is explained and demonstrated. It then is shown that the same technique can be applied to the solution of ordinary and partial differential equations, and its accuracy is discussed. Several problems taken from various branches of electrical engineering are solved to illustrate the application of the method.
