Boundary Value Problems

By Arun Kumar

This work is a revision of a textbook for an introductory course on boundary value problems. This is a theoretical overview of solving partial differential equations by the methods of separation of variables. The text is comprised of five comprehensive parts which include a prerequisite summary of ordinary differential equations, Fourier series, and solving linear partial differntial equations by separation of variables methods, by Laplace transform methods, and by numerical methods. This description may be from another edition of this product.

excellant graduate level work

Used as a text in my Boundary Value Problems class at Prairie View A & M University. I found the text very readable and the numerous problems challenging, but not too difficult at all. Powers has written an excellant work for anyone who wishes to learn the heat equation, and wave equation. His worked out answers to selected problems is very helpful for the student. This book is a keeper to be used for reference after the class...

An easy to read thorough treatment on all aspect of DE's...

I originally purchased this text to help with my study for an undergraduate course in Partial Differential Equations and Waves. From start to finish, this book always presents the material in an easy to read and easy to understand manner.Generally, the book gives a really good understanding on the topics of solving ordinary differential equations, and then the various types of partial differential equations, such as the...
