Hi,1) You will not find in Sage what you are looking for; this is not the place and as a specialist of numerics for PDEs, I think it will remain like this. 2) You problem is not so easy: it is a first order equation of hyperbolic type and this is not easy to solve. For example the problem du/dt+du/dx=0, for which we have an exact solution is not easy to solve numerically (at least one must process with care to avoid instabilities). Your problem is a bit more complicated. Solving the heat equation for example is much more easy. 3) for numerics on these first order problems, have a look at clawpack: it solves much more complicated problems (first order non linear systems- like gas dynamics for example), but it will solve easily your problem. You will have to know some bases on the numerical analysis of hyperbolic pde. http://www.amath.washington.edu/~claw/ t.d. -- To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URL: http://www.sagemath.org
