Overview
Learn how to solve Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) using Laplace Transforms, focusing on the heat equation on a semi-infinite domain. The course covers the Laplace Transform with respect to time, solving ODEs with forcing, handling homogeneous and particular solutions, initial and boundary conditions, and transitioning between frequency and time domains. The teaching method involves a step-by-step explanation with practical examples. This course is intended for learners interested in advanced mathematics, particularly in the field of solving PDEs using Laplace Transforms.
