Alternating direction implicit (ADI) method

== Concept ==
A common method of solving an [[elliptic problem]] is to add a term containing [[first derivative]] of time to the equation and solve the resulting [[parabolic equation]] until a [[steady state]] is reached. At this stage, the [[time derivative]] is zero and the solution represents the original problem.
