About The Book

Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) by V. Ravichandran serves as an essential textbook designed to introduce the foundational principles of PDEs and their applications in physical and engineering contexts. It strikes a balance between mathematical rigor and real-world applications, making it accessible to senior undergraduate students in mathematics and engineering.

This book extensively covers the theory of partial differential equations, offering a detailed exploration of important topics such as:

• Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs) and PDEs

• Fourier series and integral transforms

• Analytical and geometric methods for solving PDEs

• Practical applications related to mass, momentum, and energy transport

The author's focus on real-world applications provides a thorough understanding of how these equations model physical phenomena across various fields. The book's structure also integrates historical notes on key developments in science and engineering, enriching students' understanding of the evolution of PDE theory.

Intended for senior undergraduates and professionals in mathematics, engineering, and applied sciences, this textbook offers both theoretical foundations and practical insights, facilitating the development of higher-level mathematical understanding for solving complex problems in science and technology.
