Publisher's Synopsis
MATLAB is a platform for scientific computing that can work in almost all areas of the experimental sciences and engineering. The purpose of this book is solve partial differential equations using finite element methods throug the Partial Differential Equation Matlab Toolbox. This product contains tools for the study and solution of partial differential equations (PDEs) in two-space dimensions (2-D) and time. A set of command-line functions and a graphical user interface let you preprocess, solve, and postprocess generic 2-D PDEs for a broad range of engineering and science applications.
