Numerical Solution of Partial Differential Equations.
Abstract
Several problems relevant in the application of mechanics to real-world problems were treated. The work included theoretical analysis of solutions of partial differential equations, detailed studies of numerical techniques for approximately solving differential equations arising in mechanics, as well as actual numerical computations using such numerical schemes to model experimental phenomena. Application areas impacted by this research include heat conduction and fluid mechanics. Also closely related are problems arising in the study of controlled fusion. In addition, the work has added significantly to theoretical understanding of numerical methods for solving various partial differential equations. (Author)
