AMATH 353 – LEC,TUT 0.50 – Course ID: 003330 – Partial Differential Equations 1

Second order linear partial differential equations – the diffusion equation, wave equation, and Laplace’s equation. Methods of solution – separation of variables and eigenfunction expansions, the Fourier transform. Physical interpretation of solutions in terms of diffusion, waves and steady states. First order non-linear partial differential equations and the method of characteristics. Applications are emphasized throughout.
