<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Featuring a challenging, yet accessible, introduction to partial differential equations, Beginning Partial Differential Equations provides a solid introduction to partial differential equations, particularly methods of solution based on characteristics, separation of variables, as well as Fourier series, integrals, and transforms. Thoroughly updated with novel applications, such as Poe's pendulum and Kepler's problem in astronomy, this third edition is updated to include the latest version of Maples, which is integrated throughout the text. New topical coverage includes novel applications, such as Poe's pendulum and Kepler's problem in astronomy"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>A broad introduction to PDEs with an emphasis on specialized topics and applications occurring in a variety of fields</b></p> <p>Featuring a thoroughly revised presentation of topics, <i>Beginning Partial Differential Equations, Third Edition</i> provides a challenging, yet accessible, combination of techniques, applications, and introductory theory on the subjectof partial differential equations. The new edition offers nonstandard coverageon material including Burger's equation, the telegraph equation, damped wavemotion, and the use of characteristics to solve nonhomogeneous problems.</p> <p>The <i>Third Edition</i> is organized around four themes: methods of solution for initial-boundary value problems; applications of partial differential equations; existence and properties of solutions; and the use of software to experiment with graphics and carry out computations.

A beginner in the field of PDEs will learn quite a number of juicy facts concerning the flow of heat and the transmission of waves. While a next step will undoubtedly involve more rigor in the use of analytic tools, this first course will catch the attention of those with a curiosity for studying physical processes using differential equations." (<i>Mathematical Association of America</i>, 15 February 2015)</p> <p>"This book is one of the textbooks that provide an introduction to basic methods and applications of partial differential equations for students of mathematics, physics and engineering." (<i>Zentralblatt MATH</i>, 1 October 2014)</p> <p> </p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>PETER V. O'NEIL, PHD, </b> is Professor Emeritus in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. He has over forty years of experience in teaching and writing and is the recipient of the Lester R. Ford Award from the Mathematical Association of America.
