*Hierdie inligting is slegs in Engels beskikbaar.

*Consult with the Head of the Department of Mathematics and Applied Mathematics about the availability of this master's module in a particular year.
Systems of first order partial differential equations and their relationship to wave phenomena.  The course will show that the traditional wave equation is over-rated as study material.  More detailed contents:  Hyperbolicity of first order systems (linear and nonlinear);  characteristic curves and surfaces;  domains of influence and dependence;  well-posedness of initial and boundary value problems;  shock phenomena;  numerical calculation of solutions;  application to the equations of compressible gas dynamics and Maxwell's equations for electromagnetism.
