Abstract
In this paper we construct a rotated finite difference formula in 3-di mensions analogous to the rotated finite difference formula in 2-dimen sions (Dahlquist and Bjorck, 1974; Vichnevetsky, 1981). Further, an ex plicit 2x2x2 de-coupled group (EDG) iterative method for the solution of problems arising in 3-dimensional elliptic partial differential equ ations is developed. Performance results for the two algorithms are pr esented and a comparison with the 7 point S.O.R. scheme in 3-dimension s confirm the new methods to be computationally superior.
