Linked cluster expansions provide a useful tool for both analytical and numerical investigations of lattice field theories. The expansion parameter(s) being the interaction strength(s) fields at neighboured lattice sites are coupled, they result into convergent hopping parameter like series for free energies, correlation functions and in particular susceptibilities. We consider scalar fields with O(N) symmetric nearest neighbour interactions on hypercubic lattices with possibly finite extension in some directions, thus including field theories at finite temperature T. We improve known and develop new techniques and algorithms to increase the order n the expansions can be computed to in such a way that detailed information on critical behaviour can be extracted from the susceptibility series. This concerns both simple moments as well as higher correlations such as 4- and 6-point functions used to define renormalized coupling constants. Particular emphasis is done on finite temperature field theory. In order to be able to measure finite T critical behaviour, the order of explicit computation n has to be sufficiently large compared to 1/T in lattice units. 2- and 4-point susc. series are computed up to and including the 18th order and beyond.
