partial differential equations (pdes)
Partial differential equations (PDEs) are mathematical equations that involve partial derivatives, representing relationships between multiple variables and their rates of change. They describe how a function or a physical quantity changes with respect to multiple independent variables, including space and time. PDEs are widely used in physics, engineering, and other scientific fields to model and understand complex phenomena, such as heat transfer, fluid flow, and electromagnetic waves.
