twister.ou.edu › CFD2003 › Chapter1Chapter 1 of Lapidus and Pinder (Numerical Solution of Partial Differential Equations in Science and Engineering - web link) Supplementary Reading: P1-P20 of Durran book. Before we look at numerical methods, it is important to understand the types of equations we will be dealing with. 1. Differences between PDE's and ODE's
Partial Differential Equations (PDEs)
www.ees.nmt.edu › outside › coursesFundamentals of Partial Differential Equations We’ll first examine the motivation for studying PDEs, then examine their nature and classification, and finally talk about various solution methods. Recall that the basic attribute of a PDE is that it has two or more independent variables. In most applications these represent time and space.
