Foil 7 Examples of Different Types of PDE's: Laplace and Poisson Elliptic Equations

From CPS615-Basic PDE Solver Discussion and Sparse Matrix Formulation Delivered Lectures of CPS615 Basic Simulation Track for Computational Science -- 8 November 96. by Geoffrey C. Fox *
Secs 128.1
1 Laplace's equation (elliptic): steady state in systems of electric or magnetic fields in a vacuum or the steady flow of incompressible non-viscous fluids
2 Poisson's equation (elliptic): a variation of Laplace when an outside force, given by the function f, is applied to the system
