Partial Differential Equations of Applied Mathematics, 3rd Edition

Two new chapters are presented to reflect direct numerical methods for the solution of numerical methods via Maple 8. 

New sections are provided at the end of each chapter dealing with the solution of PDEs and are tied in with the newly created Maple procedures.

A related FTP site includes all of the Maple procedures (codes) used within the text.

Coverage of random walk problems, discontinuous and singular solutions, and perturbation and asymptotic methods is provided.

Over 800 practice exercises and solutions, many of which are fully worked out, are included.  Selected solutions are provided on the FTP site.  (A supplementary Instructor's Solutions Manual is available upon request.)

Covers the fields of engineering and the physical sciences via numerous up-to-date examples.
