Encyclopedia
FlexPDE is a general-purpose software for obtaining numerical solutions to partial differential equation
s in 2 or 3 dimensions. It is based on the Finite Element Method
.
FlexPDE can solve steady-state or time-dependent problems; eigenvalue analysis; and free boundary problems.
FlexPDE It is a commercial package; however a free student package is available that can solve many practical problems. The student version is restricted in meshsize and the number of variables allowed, but otherwise equivalent to the commercial version.
Partial differential equation
In mathematics, partial differential equations are a type of differential equation, i.e., a relation involving an unknown function of several independent variables and their partial derivatives with respect to those variables...
