PDEL—a language for partial differential equations

Posted

Conventional computer methods available to solve continuous system problems characterized by partial differential equations are very time-consuming and cumbersome. A convenient, easy to learn and to use, high level problem oriented language to solve and study partial differential equation problems has been designed; a practical translator for the language has also been designed, and a working version of it has been constructed for a significant portion of the language. This Partial Differential Equation Language, PDEL, is outlined, and the highlights of the translator are briefly summarized.
