Partial Differential Equations
A graduate course in applied mathematics remains incomplete without a discussion on partial differential equations, particularly those appearing in major classes of boundary value problems in physics and engineering. In the present chapter, we freely draw upon the results and methods of several earlier chapters and construct solutions of some of those well-known problems, involving second order linear partial differential equations.1
Introduction
The field of partial differential equations is enormously large and quite securely justifies a complete course for many of the readers of this book. However, a majority of graduate students of engineering may not have the luxury to take such a second course. For them, ...
