Hi, sorry if this isn't the correct forum.
I'm trying freefem++ to solve some some problems with finite elements method, but in the documentation the following form of the variational equation is used:

[itex]\displaystyle\int_{T_{h}} (\frac{{\partial u}}{{\partial x}}\frac{{\partial v}}{{\partial x}} + \frac{{\partial u}}{{\partial y}}\frac{{\partial v}}{{\partial y}} )dxdy =\displaystyle\int_{T_{h}} fvdxdy[/itex]

I've searched for that form, but I wasn't able to find it

Could you tell me about a book or any source where I can study that form of the variational equation?

Thanks

Looks strange without any imaginary units, time parameters or simply the order in the integral on the LHS.
Some context would be more than helpful.
