Glenn, L A

The AFTON code calculates the motion of a bounded continuum, or collection of continua, in an arbitrary, time-dependent coordinate system. The complete set of finite-difference equations for the revised and improved version is presented, as well as details of the revisions and a partial bibliography of applications.
