Partial differential equations can describe everything from planetary motion to plate tectonics, but they’re notoriously hard to solve. Unless you’re a physicist or an engineer, there really ...

Under the hood, mathematical problems called partial differential equations (PDEs) model these natural processes. Among the ...

We were always taught that the fundamental passive components were resistors, capacitors, and inductors. But in 1971, [Leon Chua] introduced the idea of a memristor — a sort of resistor with … ...

THE main work of mathematical physicists is to represent the sequence of phenomena in time and space by means of differential equations, and to solve these equations. Even the revolution effected ...

Waveguide-based structures can solve partial differential equations by mimicking elements in standard electronic circuits. This novel approach, developed by researchers at Newcastle University in the ...

The honor, like a Nobel Prize for mathematics, was given this year to Luis Caffarelli for his work on partial differential equations. By Kenneth Chang As a mathematician, Luis A. Caffarelli of the ...

The members of the group Geometric Analysis and Partial Differential Equations have broad interests in analysis and geometry. Active research topics include quasiconformal analysis and partial ...

An advanced course in the analytical and numerical study of ordinary and partial differential equations, building on techniques developed in Differential Equations I. Ordinary differential equations: ...
