In many situations the description of the dynamics of a population requires taking into account its structure. In the case of one real structural parameter, like the age or size of an individual, nonlinear first order hyperbolic equations are often applied. We will present the escalator boxcar train method, which can be used to solve these equations, and discuss its convergence.
