  • Abstract
    An extension of the Monte Carlo procedures to the solution of axisymmetric problems is presented. The stochastic techniques are illustrated with specific practical applications to the solution of Laplace´s and Poisson´s equations. The method requires no input data and provides results which are more accurate than those obtained using the finite element method.<>
