TMA026 / MMA430 Partial differential equations - second course

This page contains the program of the course: lectures and exercise sessions. Other information, such as learning outcomes, teachers, literature and examination, are in a separate course PM.

The lectures and exercise classes will this year be on the Chalmers campus after two years of zoom lecturing. 

Under files there are video lectures from 2020, covering the same material (except the last week since we do solid mechanics panics this year), and solutions to some exercises. There you can also find lecture notes and old exams.

Program

The schedule of the course is in TimeEdit.
