Generalized Difference Methods for Differential Equations

by Ronghua Li, Zhongying Chen, and Wei Wu

Published 3 January 2000

This text presents a comprehensive mathematical theory for elliptic, parabolic, and hyperbolic differential equations. It compares finite element and finite difference methods and illustrates applications of generalized difference methods to elastic bodies, electromagnetic fields, underground water pollution, and coupled sound-heat flows.
