Multiple transforms are used to solve five partial differential equations subject to boundary and initial conditions. The simplifications over single transforms that result are: the reduction of the original equation and boundary relations to a single algebraic equation, the removal of singularities in the transformed time plane (s plane) which do not originate from the physics of the problem and finally, the necessity for quoting a solution to an ordinary differential equation is removed. Because of these advantages, it is apparent that more attention should be paid to the method in mathematical physics courses.
