Solution Techniques for Elementary Partial Differential Equations
Chapman & Hall/CRC (Verlag)
978-1-032-00031-2 (ISBN)
"In my opinion, this is quite simply the best book of its kind that I have seen thus far."
—Professor Peter Schiavone, University of Alberta, from the Foreword to the Fourth Edition
Praise for the previous editions
An ideal tool for students taking a first course in PDEs, as well as for the lecturers who teach such courses."
—Marian Aron, Plymouth University, UK
"This is one of the best books on elementary PDEs this reviewer has read so far. Highly recommended."
—CHOICE
Solution Techniques for Elementary Partial Differential Equations, Fourth Edition remains a top choice for a standard, undergraduate-level course on partial differential equations (PDEs). It provides a streamlined, direct approach to developing students’ competence in solving PDEs, and offers concise, easily understood explanations and worked examples that enable students to see the techniques in action.
New to the Fourth Edition
Two additional sections
A larger number and variety of worked examples and exercises
A companion pdf file containing more detailed worked examples to supplement those in the book, which can be used in the classroom and as an aid to online teaching
Christian Constanda, MS, PhD, DSc, is the Charles W. Oliphant Endowed Chair in Mathematical Sciences and director of the Center for Boundary Integral Methods at the University of Tulsa. He is also an emeritus professor at the University of Strathclyde and chairman of the International Consortium on Integral Methods in Science and Engineering. He is the author/editor of more than 30 books and more than 150 journal papers. His research interests include boundary value problems for elastic plates with transverse shear deformation, direct and indirect integral equation methods for elliptic problems and time-dependent problems, and variational methods in elasticity.
