Galerkin Method/Evidence
Method evidence record

Galerkin Method

The Galerkin Method is a projection-based variational technique for solving differential equations by reducing infinite-dimensional problems to finite-dimensional linear systems. Developed by Boris Galerkin in 1915 and independently by Ivan Bubnoff, it underpins the Finite Element Method (FEM) and is foundational to modern computational engineering.
