Partial Differential Equations : Analytical and Numerical Methods, Hardcover by Gockenbach, Mark S., ISBN 0898719356, ISBN-13 9780898719352, Brand New, Free shipping in the US

Gockenback (mathematical sciences, Michigan Technological U.) presents an undergraduate textbook on partial differential equations that balances between classical and modern techniques, explicitly uses the language and results of liner algebra, provides examples and exercises analyzing realistic experiments with correct physical parameters and units, and recognizes mathematical software as part of the arsenal of both student and professional mathematicians. Among his topics are boundary value problems in statics, waves, problems in multiple spatial dimensions, and more about the Fourier series and finite element methods.
