Description

Partial differential equations form an essential part of the core mathematics syllabus for undergraduate scientists and engineers. The origins and applications of such equations occur in a variety of different fields, ranging from fluid dynamics, electromagnetism, heat conduction and diffusion, to quantum mechanics, wave propagation and general relativity.This volume introduces the important methods used in the solution of partial differential equations. Written primarily for second-year and final-year students taking physics and engineering courses, it will also be of value to mathematicians studying mathematical methods as part of their course. The text, which assumes only that the reader has followed a good basic first-year ancillary mathematics course, is self-contained and is an unabridged republication of the third edition published by Longman in 1985.

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐I’m not sure who this book was written for. Stephenson makes such a half-hearted attempt to explain things that he could only have assumed that the reader would either (1) already know the material well enough to follow along, or (2) have another, more detailed book on PDEs to go along with this one. In either case, why would anybody need this book?The text is maddeningly vague, and examples are often left unfinished, have important steps missing, and generally have little to do with the end-of-chapter problems. There are only a handful of solutions in the back (solutions only, mind you, with no explanation of how they were found), and these seem to have been chosen at random. As with too many academic math books, the only good thing about this one is that it’s small and won’t take up too much space in your bag.
