ResearchPublished 1965
ResearchPublished 1965
A demonstration of a method of approximating a nonlinear partial differential integral equation by a system of ordinary differential equations. A table of necessary constants is provided, and the results of a test calculation on an equation of radiative transfer in a spherical shell are described. 16 pp.
