Summary*Only students of the MIGSAA CDT may take this course* Applied Analysis and PDEs 2: PDEs and Finite Elements
This course covers several fundamental topics in applied analysis and partial differential equations (PDEs), providing a solid and broad foundation across the spectrum of the subject. The course develops the study of systems of hyperbolic, elliptic and parabolic PDEs. The latter covers uniqueness and existence theorems, but also finite approximation methods to solve these PDEs.
