An introduction to nonlinear partial differential equations

While outstanding treatises on nonlinear partial differential equations do exist, beginning students seeking a fundamental understanding of their nature and application generally find these approaches to be too advanced. David Logan's new text, the outgrowth of his many years as a professor at the University of Nebraska, resolves the dilemma by providing upper-level and graduate students in mathematics, engineering, and the physical sciences with a sensibly straightforward introduction to nonlinear PDEs, striking a balance between the mathematical and physical aspects of the subject. An Introduction to Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations covers a wide range of applications, including biology, chemistry, porous media, combustion, detonation, traffic flow, water waves, plug flow reactors, and heat transfer, among other topics in applied mathematics. Flexible enough to enable instructors to adapt portions of the book to their own curricula, An Introduction to Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations works effectively in first courses on nonlinear PDEs, second course on PDEs, and in advanced applied mathematics classes that emphasize modeling.
