MA 387 - Partial Differential Equations

3 lecture hours 0 lab hours 3 credits
This course provides a smooth transition from a course in elementary ordinary differential equations to more advanced topics in a first course in partial differential equations, with heavier emphasis on Fourier series and boundary value problems. Topics covered includes separation of variables, classification of second order equations and canonical form, Fourier series, the one-dimensional and two-dimensional wave equation and heat equation, Laplace’s equation . It also covers some applications, such as vibrating string, vibrating membrane, vibration of beams, heat conduction in bars and rectangular regions, etc. (prereq: MA 235 , MA 232 )
