PDE2D from Visual Numerics

Visual NumericsVisual Numerics, Inc., celebrating 36 years of producing advanced numerical analysis and visualization software, announced the availability of PDE2D, a partial differential equation (PDE) solver authored by University of Texas-El Paso Mathematics Professor Dr. Granville Sewell.

Dr. Sewell's software package PDE2D solves general nonlinear, time-dependent, steady-state and eigenvalue systems of partial differential equations in 1D intervals, general 2D regions and a wide range of simple 3D regions. The software features an interactive user interface, which makes it very easy-to-use, yet PDE2D users have all the flexibility of Fortran at their disposal. Collocation and Galerkin finite element methods are used, on automatically generated meshes of higher order elements, so that at least fourth order accuracy is available for all problems. PDE2D has extensive built-in graphics, and also provides an interface to MATLABĀ®'s graphical and post-processing abilities.

The PDE2D is available through Visual Numerics' Affiliated Products and Services (VNIAPS), a brand new channel program for downloadable high-quality software. Through the Visual Numerics Storefront, users purchase and download electronic copies of PDE2D or a trial version, receive technical support from Dr. Sewell through Visual Numerics Forums, and engage in topical discussions about PDEs and PDE2D. The PDE2D interactive driver automatically creates a FORTRAN program that is then compiled using a FORTRAN compiler, and linked with the PDE2D library. A compatible FORTRAN compiler is thus a prerequisite for PDE2D.

Additional product information about PDE2D and a trial version are located at http://www.vni.com/products/affiliated/index.html. Dr. Sewell will provide user support for PDE2D through the PDE2D Forum within the VNI Forum at http://forums.vni.com/.
