Numerical relativity in black hole spacetimes

This thesis is concerned with the development of better techniques for the 3 + 1 numerical relativity study of black hole spacetimes. The main result of this thesis is the development of a new technique for avoiding singularities in such spacetimes. In this technique the slices are allowed to penetr...
