A cubic spline approximation to the heat conduction equation is shown to correspond to a special case of a finite-difference scheme considered by Saul'yev. The spline approximation produces at each time level a spline function which may be used to obtain the solution at any point in the range of the space variable. © 1973 by Academic Press Inc.
