Designed for a one-semester course in partial differential equations for undergraduate students in engineering, physics, applied mathematics, social science, biology, and other sciences, this text covers separation of variables, Fourier series, classical problems of physics and engineering, Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue problems, power series solutions of variable coefficient ordinary differential equations, and transform methods. Mathematical modeling of physical data and applications are stressed. Previous courses in calculus and ordinary differential equations are required. The author teaches in the Department of Mathematical Sciences at the United States Air Force Academy. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

From the Back Cover

This extremely readable book illustrates how mathematics applies directly to different fields of study. Focuses on problems that require physical to mathematical translations, by showing readers how equations have actual meaning in the real world. Covers fourier integrals, and transform methods, classical PDE problems, the Sturm-Liouville Eigenvalue problem, and much more. For readers interested in partial differential equations.
