Ck. 78 The Differential Equations of (Electro-)Chemistry.

(Elektro-)kemiens differentialligninger

 

Contents
The course presents the differential equations commonly met in electrochemistry and chemical kinetics; for example ordinary differential equations and systems of these and partial differential equations. Analytical solution methods are given, concentrating on operational methods (the Laplace transform). The second half of the course deals with numerical methods, their implementation and numerical analysis aspects.

 

Teaching material 
Mathematical notes will be handed out; for the numerical work, D. Britz, Digital Simulation in Electrochemistry, Springer.
