Partial Differential Equation

Engineering Analysis\Partial Differential Equations
A partial differential equation (PDEs) is an equation involving one more partial derivatives of unknown function, call it u that depends on two or more variables, and often time (t) and one or several variables in space. The order of the highest derivative is called the order of PDEs. Only the simplest physical system can be modeled by ODEs, whereas problems in dynamics, elasticity, heat transfer .. etc. require PDEs .Indeed the range of applications of PDEs is enormous, compared to that of ODEs. We say that a PDE is linear if it is of the first degree in the unknown function u and it partial derivatives otherwise we called it non-linear. Also we call a linear PDE homogeneous if each of its terms contains either u or one of its partial derivatives otherwise we call the equation nonhomogeneous.
There are several ways to write a PDEs such as:Let u = f(x, y)
ux +uy u xx + u yy
Examples

u u + x y 2u 2u + x 2 y 2

2u 2u 1. + 2xy +u =1 x 2 y 2 2u 2u 2. +x + 8u = 5 y x y y 2 2u u 3. + ux =x x 2 y
Because of their widespread applications in engineering, our study of PDEs will focus on linear, second order equations.
Important second order PDEs.

Here c is a positive constant, t is time x, y and z are Cartesian coordinates.
Second order PDEs are classified to parabolic, hyperbolic and elliptic From the general form of 2nd order linear PDEs

Solution be separating variables

1) One-dimensional wave equation

The model of vibrating elastic string consists of the one-dimensional wave equation. Boundary conditions\ a. u (0, t) = 0 , b. u (L, t) = 0 for all t
Initial conditions\ a. u (x, 0) = f(x)
, b. ut (x, 0) = g(x)
,0 x L
u t
= g (x )
x ,0
We have to find a solution for the PDEs satisfying the above conditions. Step 1 By the "method of separating variables" or product method, setting u(x,t) = X. T, we obtain from PDE two ODEs, one for X and other for T.
Where: X = Function of x = X(x) and, T= Function of t = T (t) U(x,t) = X.T Differentiating the above equation with respect to x and t and substituting it in
2 2u 2 u PDEs form ( 2 = c ). t x 2
2u = X .T '' , and t 2 2 2u 2 u and =c t 2 x 2 X .T '' = c 2 .X ''.T T '' X '' = c 2T X
2u = X ''.T x 2
Re arrange it ,
now we separate it
And both must be equal to constant (k)
T '' X '' = =k c 2T X
Multiplying by the denominators gives immediately two ODEs.
T '' =k c 2T and , X '' =k X
T '' c 2 .k .T = 0
X '' k .X = 0
Now we have three possible values for k: CASE 1 CASE 2 CASE 3 Step 2 Satisfying the boundary conditions to determine the solution for X, T and u(x,t) CASE 1 k = 2 k > 0 k = 2 k < 0 k = -2 k = 0 k= 2=0
T '' c 2 . 2 .T = 0 r 2 c 2 . 2 = 0 and , X '' 2 X = 0 r 2 2 = 0

r = r = c
T = T (t ) = C 1e c t + C 2e c t
X = X (x ) = C 3e x + C 4e x
u (x , t ) = X .T = (C 1e c t + C 2e c t )(C 3e x + C 4e x )
Now we find the value of C1, C2, C3 and C4 u(0,t) = 0
0 = (C 1e c t + C 2e c t )(C 3 + C 4 ) C 3 +C 4 = 0
u(L,t) = 0
C 3 = C 4
0 = (C 1e c t + C 2e c t )(C 3e L + C 4e L ) C 3e L + C 4e L = 0 C 4e L + C 4e L = 0 C 4 (e L + e L ) = 0 C4 = 0 X = 0 C3 =C4 = 0 u (x , t ) = 0
There are no solutions for CASE 1, try to solve CASE 2 and CASE 3 CASE 2 k = -2
