Written by authors at the forefront of their field, this Second Edition discusses problems with periodic solutions, and presents new information on initial boundary value problems and numerical methods for partial differential equations.

This book studies time-dependent partial differential equations and their numerical solution, developing the analytic and the numerical theory in parallel, and placing special emphasis on the discretization of boundary conditions.

Provides an introduction to the vast subject of initial and initial-boundary value problems for PDEs. Applications to parabolic and hyperbolic systems are emphasized in this text. The Navier-Stokes equations for compressible and incompressible flows are taken as an example to illustrate the results.
