dc.description.abstract
The need is explained for a new type of computer
for solving partial differential equations, the
Digital Field Computer. The operation of such a machine
for solving Laplace's and Poisson's equations is
explained and circuits for its realisation, using
incremental switching of magnetic ferrite cores, are
given. Its operation is predicted by simulation on a
Pegasus digital computer, which shows that it solves
Laplace's equation correctly.
