The first two editions of An Introduction to Partial Differential Equations with MATLAB gained popularity among instructors and students at various universities throughout the world. Plain mathematical language is used in a friendly manner to provide a basic introduction to partial differential equations (PDEs). Suitable for a one- or two-semester introduction to PDEs and Fourier series, the book strives to provide physical, mathematical, and historical motivation for each topic. Equations are studied based on method of solution, rather than on type of equation. This third edition of this popular textbook updates the structure of the book by increasing the role of the computational portion, compared to previous editions. However, by far the most significant change in this third edition is the addition of a number of chapters dedicated to the use of MATLAB, not only for the graphical visualization of functions/solutions, but, much more importantly, for the numerical solution of PDEs. As familiarity with MATLAB is not assumed, Chapter 3 serves as an introduction to the visualization of functions, the use of MATLAB’s Symbolic Math Toolbox for solving ODEs, and a few MATLAB built- in functions.
