Provides the general analytic solution for the Burgers equation in the form of a 4-D commutative hypercomplex function. The solution exhibits the main dynamic features in a Burgers medium: propagation of disturbances, shock waves, propagating state change fronts, and solitons. Includes page about hypercomplex math.
Provides the general analytic solution for the KdV equation. In one function, the result models traveling wavetrains, solitary spikes (solitons), and sech-form long waves.
This page explains how to use the difference formula of differentials to approximate the differential equations for applied systems. This method is used when analytical techniques are unavailable or cause computers to spit out garbage. This difference method is very similar to the Runge-Kata and Newton's method.
A scientific software environment for the numerical solution of integro-differential equations, open to the coupling of physical problems (electromagnetic, acoustic, thermal, mechanical, ...) as well as of numerical methods (finite element methods, boundary element and integral methods, ...).
Green's functions play an important role in the solution of linear ordinary and partial differential equations, and are a key component to the development of boundary integral equation methods.
The site describes research activities of the differential equations group in the mathematics department at the university of Glasgow, UK, and provides some resources of a general nature.
