Adaptive Method of Lines

The general Method Of Lines (MOL) procedure provides a flexible format for the solution of all the major classes of partial differential equations (PDEs) and is particularly well suited to evolutionary, nonlinear wave PDEs. Written by distinguished researchers in the field, Adaptive Method of Lines reflects the diversity of techniques and applications related to the MOL. Particular attention is paid to the concept of both temporal and spatial adaptivity in solving time-dependent PDEs. In this first advanced text to represent the modern era in the method of lines, readers will discover new concepts, learn new techniques, and explore a wide range of applications in physics and engineering.
