UCSB ChE230A - Method Of Characteristics - 1

Method of characteristics for first order linear partial differential equations (PDE) and simple examples: plug flow and damped surface waves

This is a great explanation of the method of characteristics. In particular, it clearly explains the method in terms of a moving (Lagrangian) reference frame. This crucial detail is missing from most text book and video explanations. Thank you Dr Peters.

Great video man

[@rosewangyuan]

A great introduction on method of characteristics! Thanks for sharing:)

[@MrPatel2202]

thanks a lot for posting this nice explanatory video on characteristic method.

Thank you very much, it's much clearer now ❤️

[@paul1964uk]

This all seemed very clear to me. Thank you.

[@songlinyang7813]

Thanks man, very clear.

How did he get the exponential? That's the only part that I'm confuse about

Please stop highlighting stuff, it becomes hard to read when it is highlighted and worse yet, it is distracting and breaks the flow of the discussion. Pointing with the mouse suffices.
