This book offers a practical presentation of stochastic partial differential equations arising in physical applications and their numerical approximation.This comprehensive introduction to stochastic partial differential equations incorporates the effects of randomness into real-world models, offering graduate students and researchers powerful tools for understanding uncertainty quantification for risk analysis. MATLAB codes are included, so that readers can perform computations themselves and solve the test problems discussed.This comprehensive introduction to stochastic partial differential equations incorporates the effects of randomness into real-world models, offering graduate students and researchers powerful tools for understanding uncertainty quantification for risk analysis. MATLAB codes are included, so that readers can perform computations themselves and solve the test problems discussed.This book gives a comprehensive introduction to numerical methods and analysis of stochastic processes, random fields and stochastic differential equations, and offers graduate students and researchers powerful tools for understanding uncertainty quantification for risk analysis. Coverage includes traditional stochastic ODEs with white noise forcing, strong and weak approximation, and the multi-level Monte Carlo method. Later chapters apply the theory of random fields to the numerical solution of elliptic PDEs with correlated random data, discuss the Monte Carlo method, and introduce stochastic Galerkin finite-element methods. Finally, stochastic parabolic PDEs are developed. Assuming little previous exposure to probability and statistics, theory is developed in tandem with state-of the art computational methods through worked examples, exercises, theorems and proofs. The set of MATLAB codes included (and downloadable) allows readers to perform computations themselves and solve the test problems discussed. Practical examples are drawn from finance, mathematical biology,l#i
