Abstract
This paper describes a simple explicit and unconditionally stable numerical routine for the solution of the diffusion equation using a transmissionโline modelling (TLM) method. The paper also shows that the explicit finite difference routine and the implicit CrankโNicolson routine may be expressed as the exact solution of certain transmissionโline models. Using these models a technique for comparing the accuracy and stability of numerical routines is developed and a detailed comparison of the new TLM methods and the well established methods is made.

A diagonally implicit method is shown to be an effective method for integrating the multicomponent species conservation equations. The constitutive equation for multicomponent diffusion is recast into a form analogous to that for binary diffusion, except that the diffusion coefficient is replaced wi
An unconditionally stable precise integration time-domain method is extended to 3-D circular cylindrical coordinates to solve Maxwell's equations. In contrast with the cylindrical finite-difference time-domain method, not only can it remove the stability condition restraint, but also make the numeri
