This is a complete set of 40 Maple
lessons for an undergraduate course in Partial Differential Equations.
The course covers linear spaces; Fourier series; symbolic solutions
to the heat, wave and Laplace equations with various boundary conditions;
numerical methods; and general theory of first-order PDE's.
Prof. Jim Herod, Ret., formerly
of Georgia Tech, developed the lessons. Dr. Herod has used and polished
them through dozens of iterations of his course.
"Without the Maple software, we would have to spend weeks generating the equations of motion for every experiment. Then the chances that we did it right would basically be near zero. There would always be a mistake somewhere. It is very difficult to set up a dynamic motion model by hand." - Jean-Claude PiedBeouf, Ph.D Manager of Robotics, Canadian Space Agency
"Its very good - highly accurate and easy to use. The speed of Maple allows me to change equations and quickly reintegrate them into the application, so more possibilities can be explored to achieve the precise effect desired." Shawn Neely, Senior R & D Director for PDI/Dreamworks
