Description

Partial Differential Equations: A Unified Approach to Analysis and Computation This textbook provides an introduction to the analytical and numerical aspects of partial differential equations (PDEs). It combines classical concepts with computational methods, establishing the qualitative behaviour of solutions using maximum principles and energy methods. The book covers a range of topics, including irregularly shaped boundaries, polar coordinates, and approximating hyperbolic conservation laws. Numerous examples and over 300 exercises are included to illustrate the underlying theory and promote understanding. These exercises are designed to test comprehension and are starred according to their level of difficulty. Solutions to odd-numbered exercises are available to all readers, while even-numbered solutions are reserved for authorised instructors. This book is suitable for mathematics undergraduates in their final or penultimate year of study, as well as students pursuing scientific and engineering disciplines that rely heavily on PDEs. Written in an informal yet rigorous style, this textbook is designed to be accessible to readers with a basic understanding of calculus and linear algebra.
