SPRINT2D is a set of software tools for solving time-dependent partial differential equations in two space variables. The software uses unstructured triangular meshes and adaptive error control in both space and time. This chapter describes the software and shows how the adaptive techniques may be used to increase the reliability of the solution procedure for a challenging combustion problem. The recent construction of a problem solving environment (PSE) has partially automated the use of SPRINT2D. This PSE consists of tools such as a visual domain specification tool, which helps ease the input of complex geometries, and a visual problem specification tool. After describing these components an evaluation will be made of SPRINT2D and its associated PSE.

A New Relaxation Scheme (NRS) is presented in this paper to solve Elasto Hydrodynamic Lubrication (EHL) point contact problems. The solutions obtained are compared with those obtained by Ehret [6] who employed the Distributive Relaxation Scheme (DRS) of Venner [2]. Results obtained using the two schemes are in close agreement which is very encouraging although it is too early to draw any conclusions. The new relaxation scheme thus provides an alternative approach to the distributive relaxation scheme.
