The emphasis in this book is placed on techniques for solving partial differential equations found in physics and engineering but discussions on existence and uniqueness of solutions are included. Several different methods of solution are presented, with the primary emphasis on the classical method of separation of variables. Secondary emphasis is placed on transform solutions, as well as on the method of Green's functions.
Coverage includes Fourier series, orthogonal functions, boundary value problems, Green's functions, and transform methods. This text is ideal for readers interested in science, engineering, and applied mathematics.
This new edition of the well-known text by Ockendon et al., providing an enthusiastic and clear guideto the theory and applications of PDEs, provides timely updates on: transform methods (especially multidimensional Fourier transforms and ...

KEY BENEFIT Emphasizing physical interpretations of mathematical solutions, this book introduces applied mathematics and presents partial differential equations.
Drawing on his decade of experience teaching the differential equations course, John Davis offers a refreshing and effective new approach to partial differential equations that is equal parts computational proficiency, visualization, and ...
This book is written to meet the needs of undergraduates in applied mathematics, physics and engineering studying partial differential equations.
In this book mathematical jargon is minimized. Our focus is on the three most classical PDEs: the wave, heat and Laplace equations. Advanced concepts are introduced frequently but with the least possible technicalities.
