Partial differential equations (PDEs) play a central role in describing the dynamics of physical systems in research and in practical applications. However, equations appearing in realistic scenarios are typically non-linear and analytical solutions rarely exist. Instead, such systems are solved by numerical integration to provide insight into their behavior. Moreover, such investigations can motivate approximative solutions, which might then lead to analytical insight.
