Abstract Motivated by the evolutionary and dissipative properties of parabolic type partial differential equation (PDE), Liu (2008a) has proposed a natural and mathematically equivalent approach by transforming the quasilinear elliptic PDE into a parabolic one. However, the above paper only considered a rectangular domain in the plane, and did not treat the difficulty arisen from the quasilinear PDE defined in an arbitrary plane domain. In this paper we propose a new technique of internal and boundary residuals in a fictitious rectangular domain, which are driving forces for the ordinary differential equations based on the Fictitious Time Integration Method (FTIM).
