Summary "An Introduction to Partial Differential Equations with MATLAB exposes the basic ideas critical to the study of PDEs - characteristics, integral transforms, Green's functions, and most importantly, Fourier series and related topics. The author uses MATLAB software for solving exercises and generating tables and figures, and includes examples of many important PDEs and their applications."--BOOK JACKET
