- Abstract:
-
This thesis introduces and analyses a numerical method for solving time-dependent partial differential equations (PDEs) on surfaces. This method is based on the closest point method, and solves the surface PDE by solving a suitably chosen equation in a band surrounding the surface. As it uses an implicit closest point representation of the surface, the method has the advantages of being simple to implement for very general surfaces, and amenable to discretization with a broad class of nume...
