The author discusses the formulation and solution of representative problems that are modeled by partial differential equaitons, using examples from the physical sciences and engineering. All the basic physical principles of a given subject are first discussed in detail and then interwoven into the analysis. Although proofs are often omitted, the underlying mathematical concepts are carefully explaind. Throughout the text, the emphasis is on how to derive explicit analytical results rather than on the abstract properties of solutions.
