Does /sci/ have any good resources on learning about PDEs and how to numerically solve them?
>>8191315
yes
>>8191350
Tell me
>>8191357
what kind of PDE? What order? Homogeneous? Lineal?
>>8191315
finite differences or finite element? what sort of equation?
>>8191362
anyway, I'll tell you a good book about DE ingeneral. Boyce-DiPrima, brilliant.
>>8191315
Just use integral equations
>>8191315
Taylor's books are pretty good.
Mathematica has always worked miracles for me.
>>8191315
.....go to school??
Why do people ask these stupid questions?

Do you already know methods for ODEs?
If not then that's where you should start, since most PDE solvers discretise the PDE into a system of ODEs which have to be solved.
After that, you need to decide what types of PDEs you want to solve (hyperbolic/parabolic/elliptic).
Then you can get into detail about the approach (finite differences / finite volumes / finite elements etc.)
