Abstract

The first chapter classifies the content as well as the focus of this textbook. In engineering practice, the description of processes is centered around partial differential equations, and all the classical approximation methods such as the finite element method, the finite difference method, the finite volume method, and the boundary element method offer different ways of solving these equations.
