Course information

Many physical processes such as vibrating strings, diffusion of heat and fluid flows are well modelled by partial differential equations and/or integral equations. This course provides an introduction to methods for solving and analysing standard partial differential equations and integral equations, including an introduction to complex analytic techniques.
