Partial Differential Equations

Topic
Overview  »

The Wolfram Language has powerful functionality based on the finite element method and the numerical method of lines for solving a wide variety of partial differential equations. The symbolic capabilities of the Wolfram Language make it possible to efficiently compute solutions from PDE models expressed as equations.
