Applied Partial Differential Equations

Catalog description

This course provides an introduction to the basic concepts and widely used techniques of partial differential equations (PDEs) that are frequently used by applied scientists and engineers, et al. Topics covered include: PDEs and boundary value problems, waves and diffusions, Fourier series, the Laplace equation, the heat equation, harmonic functions, Green identities and Green functions, vibrations of continuous systems, the potential equation and spectral methods for eigenvalue problems.
