    55Elliptic equations can be thought of as being the steady state limit of the diffusion equation,

    9 when both the boundary conditions and the source (or "forcing") term  are time in-dependent. Under these conditions, it can be expected that the time dependent terms vanish as the system relaxes to steady state (in the limit [[latex($t \rightarrow \infty, \partial t \rightarrow 0$)]]), and we are led to the elliptic equation (here in 2D),
