ABSTRACT

The way this is carried out is set out in the next two sections before a full

description of the final solution.

17.2 SELECTING THE SPACE STEP SIZE

The digitisation of the solution space for this simple example is achieved by

dividing the solution space into a number of equally spaced points. For example, if

the pipe into

elements

discussion in

i i+1

Note that one general approach is to number the nodes sequentially from 0 (or

1) to n where n depends on the total number used in the solution, and that at any

point it is possible to label three neighbouring points as i-1, i and i+1. This will

become important in the development of the solution.
