Finite Difference Methods,Theory and Applications

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Finite Difference Methods, FDM 2014, held in Lozenetz, Bulgaria, in June 2014.

The 36 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 62 submissions. These papers together with 12 invited papers cover topics such as finite difference and combined finite difference methods as well as finite element methods and their various applications in physics, chemistry, biology and finance.
