Description
A detailed tutorial on the explanation of the Galerkin Method. Step by step tutorial including several examples of how to solve problems using the Galerkin Method for reference.
Overview
The Galerkin Method is used for converting a continuous operator problem, like a differential equation, to a discrete problem. This makes it a link between Discrete Math and Differential Equations. You can use different approximation techniques with the Galerkin Method, sometimes changing the name to fit the technique you are using. The credit of this method goes to Russian mathematician Boris Galerkin.
