Class Details

Partial differential equations (PDE) arise as mathematical models of phenomena in chemistry, ecology, economics, electromagnetics, fluid dynamics, neuroscience, thermodynamics, and more. We introduce PDE models and develop techniques for studying them. Topics include: derivation, classification, and physical interpretation of canonical PDE; solution techniques, including separation of variables, series solutions, integral transforms, and characteristics; and application to problems in the natural and social sciences.
