Computational Physics Lecture 27, Finite-Difference Methods for Parabolic PDEs

In this lecture, we consider a simple heat conduction equation and develop simple finite-difference methods. We consider discretization in space and time. In time domain, we consider explicit and implicit discretizations. This video was created to accompany the course "Computational Physics (PHYS 270)" taught in the spring of 2017 at Nazarbayev University.
