Abstract: Hyperbolic equations are often derived from conservation principles. We will show in this paper that in those cases, expressing this principles in a natural discrete form provides a procedure for the derivation of finite-element approximations. Likewise, the solution of parabolic equations also satisfy natural conservation principles. The derivation of finite-element approximations from their use will also shown to be feasible.
