Applied Partial Differential Equations (4th Edition)

10 reviews
Richard Haberman

Prentice Hall, 2003

Great book for solving applied problems.
I'm an undergraduate mechanical engineering major pursuing a minor in mathematics. I used this book for a two course sequence and I can say that it has been invaluable in my job as a research assistant at my university's computational mechanics research center. It's helped me implement software for computational fluid dynamics and heat transfer. (Note, I didn't design the algorithms, faculty ...

Differential Equations with Boundary-Value Problems

18 reviews
Dennis G. Zill, Michael R. Cullen

Brooks Cole, 2008

other DE books to choose from
I've run down most, if not all, of the available introductory DE books in my review of Boyce/Diprima (a book to be avoided by the way): Elementary Differential Equations and Boundary Value Problems , 8th Edition, with ODE Architect CD

Boundaries Workbook: When to Say Yes When to Say No To Take Control of Your Life

17 reviews
Henry Cloud, John Townsend

Zondervan, 1995

there is freedom in setting boundaries!
This is a great book. I encourage anyone who has issues with setting boundaries for themselves or if you find yourself butting heads with other people more often than not, to read this book! It gets a little redundant towards the end of the book but the message is powerful and the authors quote scripture to support the position that it's ok to say no and take of yourself (physical, mental, ...

Fundamentals of Differential Equations and Boundary Value Problems (4th Edition) (Nagle/Saff/Snider Series)

6 reviews
Kent B. Nagle, Edward B. Saff, ...

Addison Wesley, 2003

This book is'nt great, but surely it's adequate
This is the required text for a math class I am currently taking. While the book is not spectacular, it is written at an elementary level and it is not mired in proofs, so one can learn the material simply by opening the book and reading. A definite strength of this book is that it covers a wide range of problems, from ordinary DE's to some PDE's. But it also includes whole chapters on ...

Elementary Differential Equations and Boundary Value Problems , 8th Edition, with ODE Architect CD

66 reviews
William E. Boyce, Richard C. DiPrima

Wiley, 2004

Not entirely useless
Ok, so I'm in the same boat as most of you here. I hardly even opened this book when I first took a course in differential equations. However, once I began taking higher level courses I found its introductory explanations of many forms of solutions (like Bessel Functions) to be useful. Although I don't believe it's worth using in a course in ordinary differential equations, it still makes ...

Differential Equations and Boundary Value Problems: Computing and Modeling (4th Edition)

21 reviews
Henry Edwards, David Penney

Prentice Hall, 2007

Differential equation text
The textbook was in good condition and i recieved within a week

Student Solutions Manual to accompany Boyce Elementary Differential Equations and Boundary Value Problems

12 reviews
Charles W. Haines, William E. Boyce, ...

Wiley, 2004

I have seen the light!
Like another reviewer commented, this book is great for self teaching. With this book I am able to preview the chapter before class, understand it, decipher my professor's chicken scratch on the board, and ask intelligent questions about the material. True, it doesn't have the solutions to every single problem, though it does have solutions to every *type* of problem. You work/solve the ...

Elementary Differential Equations, With ODE Architect CD

21 reviews
William E. Boyce, Richard C. DiPrima

Wiley, 2004

I think this book is fine!
I do not see what all the negative reviews are about. Everything is very clearly explained, the examples are good and simple, and there is an answer to almost every problem in the back of the book. I am not quite sure what more you could ask for in a book about ODE's

Elementary Differential Equations with Boundary Value Problems with IDE CD Package (2nd Edition)

1 review
Werner E. Kohler, Lee W. Johnson

Addison Wesley, 2005

Suitable for a two-semester course, overkill for a one-semester course
As a teacher at a small college, at some point I will be required to teach just about every class in the math and computer science curriculum. Therefore, I examined this book for possible adoption as a text in our differential equations course and found it to be appropriate in many ways. In my opinion, differential equations is a retro course as far as proofs are concerned Meaning that ...

Schaum's Outline of Fourier Analysis with Applications to Boundary Value Problems

4 reviews
Murray R Spiegel

McGraw-Hill, 1974

Good for Fourier analysis and much more
This Schaum's outline is unique in that you not only get a thorough coverage of Fourier analysis, but of other orthogonal functions such as Bessel, Legendre, Hermite, and Laguerre. The first chapter would be interesting to students of partial differential equations because of its excellent treatment of boundary value problems and of the different types of partial differential equations. It makes ...

David L. Powers

Academic Press, 2005

An easy to read thorough treatment on all aspect of DE's...
I originally purchased this text to help with my study for an undergraduate course in Partial Differential Equations and Waves. From start to finish, this book always presents the material in an easy to read and easy to understand manner. Generally, the book gives a really good understanding on the topics of solving ordinary differential equations, and then the various types of partial ...

Linear Partial Differential Equations for Scientists and Engineers

1 review
Tyn Myint-U, Lokenath Debnath

Birkhäuser Boston, 2006

Aimed at the Person who needs to do Real Work
Partial Differential equations are really the first time that the science or entineering student begins to see that math can really represent real life situations that are more complex than the almost trivial examples he has studied up until now. This book, now in its fourth edition reflects comments made by users: students, faculty and researchers as well as covering the major new ...

Thomas J. R. Hughes

Dover Publications, 2000

easy to learn
I am an international student majored in geology and geophysics. FEM is quite important for me to build a computational model to caculate statical and dynamical problems. This FEM book is recommended by my supervisor and I have read it carefully. The concepts and mathematics are easy to understand for me. good deal~ not too hard, good for new students in this area

Fourier Series and Boundary Value Problems (Brown and Churchill)

2 reviews
James Ward Brown, Ruel V. Churchill

McGraw-Hill Science/Engineering/Math, 2006

excellent textbook
If you are an advanced undergraduate student or a begining graduate student and want to learn not only the concepts behind Fourier Series but see how it can be applied to boundary value problems of mathematical physics, then this is "the" book you should read. It is well written - easy to understand and illustrated with lots of examples.

Differential Equations with Boundary Value Problems (2nd Edition)

1 review
John Polking, Al Boggess, ...

Prentice Hall, 2005

Great Book for ODE's
I used this book for a course in ODE's. The edition that was available for purchase at our school's bookstore also included a book by the authors for using MatLab for solving ODE's, The combination of the two were great. The book is logically structured and generally easy to read. The authors use many examples from a variety of fields. The MatLab book was a phenomenal help: it's the best intro to ...

Boundary and Eigenvalue Problems in Mathematical Physics

4 reviews
Hans Sagan

Dover Publications, 1989

A high-class, beautifully written text
The problem with books on mathematical methods for physics is that they look more like a collection of recipes than like a coherent text. This was not true of the older classics, like Sommerfeld's "Partial Differential Equations of Physics". Fortunately, there is this beautiful book by Hans Sagan, now on Dover catalogue, to follow that tradition. A highlight is his treatment of the ...

Partial Differential Equations and Boundary Value Problems with Fourier Series (2nd Edition)

4 reviews
Nakhle H. Asmar

Prentice Hall, 2004

A clear introduction to PDEs, Fourier series
This text not only provides a simple and easy-to- read-the-first-time guide to solving PDEs with Fourier series, it also is chock-full with all the necessary details and includes many interesting problems. I took a course out of this book as a sophomore in college and found it very interesting and useful. The style and difficulty is very similar to a typical undergraduate ordinary ...

Differential Equations With Boundary-Value Problems: Student Resource and Solutions Manual for Zill and ...

Warren S. Wright, Dennis G. Zill, ...

Brooks/Cole Pub Co, 2004

Wheres the Solutions?
I bought this book to show me how they got the answers to some of the problems in the text book. I was very dissappointed when I recieved it to find that all it did was basically give only some answers and a few clues as to how they got them. Does not help you at all.
