Introduction to Partial Differential Equations
by John Douglas Moore
Publisher: UCSB 2003
Number of pages: 169
Description:
Our goal here is to develop the most basic ideas from the theory of partial differential equations, and apply them to the simplest models arising from physics. In particular, we will present some of the elegant mathematics that can be used to describe the vibrating circular membrane.
