The Petrov–Galerkin method is a mathematical method used to obtain approximate solutions of partial differential equations which contain terms with odd order. In these type of problems a weak formulation with similar function space for test function and solution function is not possible. Hence the method is used in case the test function and solution function belong to different function spaces.〔J. N. Reddy: ''An introduction to the finite element method'', 2006, Mcgraw–Hill〕 ==Overview== An example of differential equation containing a term with odd order is as follows: : If a test function is used to obtain the weak form, the final Galerkin formulation will be given as follows: : The term with even order (2nd term in LHS) is now symmetric, as the test function and solution function both have same order of differentiation and they both belong to . However, there is no way the first term on LHS can be made this way. In this case the solution space and test function space are different and hence the usually employed Bubnov Galerkin method cannot be used. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Petrov–Galerkin method」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
