Abstract
The recursive formulation of the Tau Method (see [1,2]) is used to sim ulate the method of Galerkin. As a result of this, a new recursive for mulation of Galerkin's Method is deduced. Furthermore, it is shown tha t the Galerkin's Method is a special form of a Tau Method with a weigh ted polynomial basis. Examples of application to the numerical approxi mation of linear and nonlinear partial differential equations, defined on bounded and unbounded domains, are also given.
