Lectures On Computational Numerical Analysis Of Partial Differential Equations, James M. Mcdonough

Mechanical Engineering Textbook Gallery

From Chapter 1:

The purpose of these lectures is to present a set of straightforward numerical methods with applicability to essentially any problem associated with a partial differential equation (PDE) or system of PDEs independent of type, spatial dimension or form of nonlinearity.
