Sc.) - Asian Institute of Technology, 1981  aTwo codes to solve an initial value problem involving a  system of six coupled partial differential equations are  compared. Such problems arise in various fields of science and engineering, and the two codes represent alternative approaches. The first (VISCODE) is a special purpose implicit finite difference implementation of traditional type; and the second (PDECODE) exploits existing general purpose software for ordinary differential equations , via the method of lines implemented in the package PDECOL. The  second code took much less effort to construct, is rather  more flexible for the user, and is of comparable efficiency. 10aDifferential equations, Partial1 aHosking, Roger J., eChairperson1 aRadok, J.R.M, eExamination Committee1 aMalik, Ghulam M., eExamination Committee2 aThe Government of the Republic of China, eScholarship Donor2 aAsian Institute of Technology.tSpecial studies project report ;vno.
