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.

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.
