Advice
The students are advised to complete the following course before following 'Partial Differential Equations': 'Vector Calculus and Differential Equations' (4708).
Following 'Functional and Fourier analysis' (3985) is not necessarily required, but Fourier series are assumed to be known.
'Analysis 2' (3190) and 'Dynamical Systems' (3195) are useful but not necessarily required.
=============================================== De studenten worden geadviseerd om de volgende cursus af te ronden voordat ze 'Partial Differential Equations' volgen: 'Vector Calculus and Differential Equations' (4708).
Het volgen van 'Functionele en Fourieranalyse' (3985) is niet noodzakelijk vereist, maar Fourierreeksen worden bekend verondersteld.
'Analyse 2' (3190) en 'Dynamische Systemen' (3195) zijn nuttig maar niet noodzakelijk vereist.

This course is an introduction to the theory of partial differential equations and includes several important applications.
The general study goal is to provide a basic understanding of the three major types of partial differential equations (elliptic, parabolic and hyperbolic) and the related initial and boundary value problems. In particular, basic methods for for finding solutions explicitly will be discussed.
Contents (subject to adjustement): first order equations, method of characteristics, second order linear equations, the diffusion equation (energy estimates, uniqueness, similarity solutions, fundamental solutions, initial and boundary value problems, separation of variables), the Laplace equation (uniqueness, boundary value problems, separation of variables), wave equation (energy estimates, uniqueness, boundary value problems, initial value problems, separation of variables), nonlinear equations (travelling waves)

Additional information | The weighting 30% assignments 70% written exam is only valid if the grade for the written exam is greater or equal to 8. If the grade for the written exam is less than 8 then this grade will count for 100%, so the assignments have the weight 0%. This rule also applies to the second session (resit). For the resit, the grade for the assignments remains valid.
De verdeling 30% huiswerktaken 70% schriftelijk examen geldt alleen als het cijfer voor het schriftelijk examen groter of gelijk is aan 8. Als het cijfer voor het schriftelijk examen minder is dan 8 is dan telt het cijfer van het schriftelijk examen voor 100%. De regel geldt voor beide zittingen, het cijfer voor de huiswerktaken blijft geldig ook voor de tweede examenkans. |
