Any recommendations for Partial Differential Eqs? I did an ODE course a while ago and I wanna get back into it.
QED
Just do the first few steps of ODEs. Never a whole ODE.
I've heard good things about Evans, but I can't vouch for that myself and the book is massive.
Not of the top of my head but I'm back in the library on Thursday and can have a look at the recommended section.
:O I took a look at the MIT Courseware but it didn't really catch me.
So aside from Evans which seems like the gold standard, I also found "Partial Differential Equations Modeling Analysis, Computation" by Mattheij, Rienstra and ten Thije Boonkkamp as a prominent recommendation.
It seems like it has a soft introduction so good for getting back into math, as well as a side-focus on numerical methods and modeling, so playing around with some made-up real-life problems in SageMath or Matlab (and lets be honest drawing pictures is the fun part of this endeavour) should be achievable.
I personally haven't used it so can't vouch for it but these two books are what my library has as the standard textbooks on PDE.
Oh this is wonderful comrade, this'll be helpful i hope in my studies. i've been meaning to model biological systems (populations of bacteria and microbes) since there were a few interesting ideas i wanted to explore.
Best of luck
