898.1 | Stoer and Bulirsch | CTCADM::ROTH | If you plant ice you'll harvest wind | Thu Jul 07 1988 11:05 | 13 |
| An introduction that has references to the literature is (see chapter 8):
"Introduction to Numerical Analysis"
Stoer and Bulirsch, Springer Verlag.
Despite its title, it's not for airheads and would be more appropriate
for a second course than a first introduction. Good book though.
I don't have much experience in the area, but this should be a good
start. Note that SIAM has at least one book on boundary value problems
(though it may be only elliptic problems).

898.2 | Good Old Days | ESDDEV::EL_DARDIRY | | Thu Jul 07 1988 13:20 | 27 |

An old but a good reference, in the subject is :
APPLIED NUMERICAL METHODS
BY
Brice Carnahan, H.A. Luther
and James O. Wilkes
Published by J. Wiley, 1969
Chapter 7 contains various numerical methods on the solution of
PDE. The methods are also illustrated by good doc. FORTRAN IV (IBM
360 !!!!) subroutines and progs.
Of course; you will need to rewrite some of the subroutines once
again for //proc.
Good luck.

Great book.

898.4 | .1 should be a good book | MEIS::WOLFF | I feel the need, the need for speed | Thu Jul 14 1988 18:15 | 10 |
| Re: .1
I know Prof. Bulirsch, if that book is as good as his courses, then
it must be an excellent book. BTW, you would not believe that this man has
anything to do with math, if you would see him on the street - you would
think of an olympic athlet or something like that; he is about 2 meters high
(which is in american feet something like 6.6 ft I think) and is bascially
a very big human being - but nice.

898.5 | Try Flannery, Press, Teukolsky, & Vettering | AKQJ10::YARBROUGH | I prefer Pi | Mon Jul 18 1988 14:41 | 5 |
| The recent book "Numerical Recipes" [in FORTRAN, PASCAL, or C] has a good
chapter (17) on PDE's. The treatment has good intuitive content and the
algorithms appear to be good.
