METHOD OF UNDETERMINED COOFFICIENTS:

The particular integral of an nth order linear non-homogeneous differential equation F(D)y=X
with constant coefficients can be determined by the method of undetermined coefficients
provided the RHS function X is an exponential function, polynomial in cosine, sine or sums or
product of such functions.
The trial solution to be assumed in each case depend on the form of X. Choose PI from the
following table depending on the nature of X.

Differential equations of first order and higher degree

dy
If y=f(x), we use the notation p throughout this unit.
dx
A differential equation of first order and nth degree is the form
A0 pn A1 p n 1 A2 p n 2
....... An 0
Where A0 , A1 , A2 ,... An are functions of x and y. This being a differential equation of first order,
the associated general solution will contain only one arbitrary constant. We proceed to discuss
equations solvable for P or y or x, wherein the problem is reduced to that of solving one or more
differential equations of first order and first degree. We finally discuss the solution of clairaut’s
equation.
Equations solvable for p
m
Supposing that the LHS of (1) is expressed as a product of n linear factors, then the
co
equivalent form of (1) is
p f1 ( x, y ) p f 2 ( x, y ) ... p f n ( x, y ) 0 ....(2)
s.
p f1 ( x, y ) 0, p f 2 ( x, y ) 0... p f n ( x, y )
bu 0
All these are differential equations of first order and first degree. They can be solved by
the known methods. If F1 ( x, y, c) 0, F2 ( x, y, c) 0,... Fn ( x, y, c) 0 respectively represents the
la
solution of these equations then the general solution is given by the product of all these solution.

Note: We need to present the general solution with the same arbitrary constant in each factor.

PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS
Introduction:
Many problems in vibration of strings, heat conduction, electrostatics involve two or more variables.
Analysis of these problems leads to partial derivatives and equations involving them. In this unit we first
discuss the formation of PDE analogous to that of formation of ODE. Later we discuss some methods of
solving PDE.
Definitions:
m
An equation involving one or more derivatives of a function of two or more variables is called a partial
co
differential equation.
s.
The order of a PDE is the order of the highest derivative and the degree of the PDE is the degree of highest
order derivative after clearing the equation of fractional powers.
bu
A PDE is said to be linear if it is of first degree in the dependent variable and its partial derivative.
la
In each term of the PDE contains either the dependent variable or one of its partial derivatives, the PDE is
yl
said to be homogeneous. Otherwise it is said to be a nonhomogeneous PDE.

Triple Integrals:
The treatment of Triple integrals also known as volume integrals in R 3 is a simple and straight
extension of the ideas in respect of double integrals.
Let f(x,y,z) be continuous and single valued function defined over a region V of space. Let V be
divided into sub regions v1 , v2 ....... vn in to n parts. Let ( xk , yk , zk ) be any arbitrary point
Page 78
www.allsyllabus.com
n
within or on the boundary of the sub region vk . From the sum s f ( xk , yk , zk ) vk
k 1
…………(1)
If as n and the maximum diameter of every.
Sub region approaches zero the sum (1) has a limit then the limit is denoted by f ( x, y, z )dv
V
This is called the triple integral of f(x,y,z) over the region V.
For the purpose of evolution the above triple integral over the region V can be expressed as an
iterated integral or repeated integral in the form
m
b h( x) ( x, y )
f ( x, y, z )dxdydz f ( x, y, z )dz dy dx
co
V a g ( x) ( x, y )
s.
Where f(x,y,z) is continuous in the region V bounded by the surfaces z= z bu ( x, y), z ( x, y) ,
y g ( x), y h( x), x a, x b . the above integral indicates the three successive integration to be
performed in the following order, first w.r.t z, keeping x and y as constant then w.r.t y keeping x
la
as constant and finally w.r.t.x.
yl
Note:
lls
When an integration is performed w.r.t a variable that variable is eliminated completely

from the remaining integral.
.a
If the limits are not constants the integration should be in the order in which dx, dy, dz is
w
given in the integral.

w
Evaluation of the integral may be performed in any order if all the limits are constants.
If f(x,y,z) = 1 then the triple integral gives the volume of the region.

Curvilinear coordinates:
Introduction: the cartesian co-ordinate system is not always convenient to solve all sorts of
problems. Many a time we come across a problem having certain symmetries which decide the
choice of a co ordinates systems .our experience with the cylindrical and spherical polar co-
m
ordinates systems places us in a good position to analyse general co-ordinates systems or
curvilinear coordinates. Any suitable set of three curved surface can be used as reference surface
co
and their intersection as the reference axes. Such a system is called curvilinear system.
s.
Definition: bu
The position of a point P(x,y,z)in Cartesian co-ordinates system is determined by intersection of
three mutually perpendicular planes x=k1, y=k2, and z=k 3 where ki (i=1,2,3)
la
Are constants in curvilinear system, the axes will in general be curved. Let us the denote the
yl
curved coordinate axis by and respectively.

lls
It should be noted that axis is the intersection of two surfaces u1= constant and u2=constant and
.a
so on.
w
Cartesian coordinates (x,y,z) are related to (u1,u2,u3) by the relations which can be expressed as
w
x=x(u1,u2,u3); y=y(u1,u2,u3): z= z(u1,u2,u3)…….(1)

w
Equation (1) gives the transformation equation from 1 coordinates system to another.
The inverse transformation equation can be written as u1= u1 (x,y,z), u2= u2 (x,y,z), u3= u3
(x,y,z)……(2).
(1) And (2) are called transformation of coordinates.

Each point p(x,y,z) in space determine a unique triplet of numbers (u1,u2,u3) and conversely to
each such triplet there is a unique point in space. The trial (u1,u2,u3) are called curvilinear
coordinates of the point p.

LAPLACE TRANSFORM
INTRODUCTION
 Laplace transform is an integral transform employed in solving physical problems.
 Many physical problems when analysed assumes the form of a differential equation
subjected to a set of initial conditions or boundary conditions.
 By initial conditions we mean that the conditions on the dependent variable are specified
m
at a single value of the independent variable.
co
 If the conditions of the dependent variable are specified at two different values of the
s.
independent variable, the conditions are called boundary conditions.
bu
 The problem with initial conditions is referred to as the Initial value problem.

la
The problem with boundary conditions is referred to as the Boundary value problem.

Laplace transform is essentially employed to solve initial value problems. This technique
is of great utility in applications dealing with mechanical systems and electric circuits.
Besides the technique may also be employed to find certain integral values also. The
transform is named after the French Mathematician P.S. de’ Laplace (1749 – 1827).
The subject is divided into the following sub topics.

LAPLACE TRANSFORMS
Definition and Transforms of Convolution Inverse Solution of

Properties some functions theorem transforms differential
equations
Definition:
m
Let f(t) be a real-valued function defined for all t 0 and s be a parameter, real or
co
st
complex. Suppose the integral e f (t )dt exists (converges). Then this integral is called the
0
s.
Laplace transform of f(t) and is denoted by L[f(t)]. bu
st
Thus, L[f(t)] = e f (t )dt (1)
la
0
yl
We note that the value of the integral on the right hand side of (1) depends on s. Hence
lls
L[f(t)] is a function of s denoted by F(s) or f (s ) .

.a
Thus, L[f(t)] = F(s) (2)

w
Consider relation (2). Here f(t) is called the Inverse Laplace transform of F(s) and is
denoted by L-1 [F(s)].
w
L-1 [F(s)] = f(t)

w
Thus, (3)
Suppose f(t) is defined as follows :
f1(t), 0<t<a
f(t) = f2(t), a<t<b
f3(t), t>b
Note that f(t) is piecewise continuous. The Laplace transform of f(t) is defined as
Page 117
www.allsyllabus.com
st
L[f(t)] = e f (t )
0
a b
st st st
= e f1 (t )dt e f 2 (t )dt e f 3 (t )dt
0 a b
NOTE: In a practical situation, the variable t represents the time and s represents frequency.
Hence the Laplace transform converts the time domain into the frequency domain.
Basic properties
The following are some basic properties of Laplace transforms:
m
1. Linearity property: For any two functions f(t) and (t) (whose Laplace transforms exist)
co
and any two constants a and b, we have
s.
L [a f(t) + b (t)] = a L[f(t)] + b L[ (t)]
bu
Proof :- By definition, we have
la
yl
st st st
L [af (t) + b (t)] = e af (t ) b (t ) dt = a e f (t )dt b e (t )dt
0 0 0
lls
= a L[f(t)] + b L[ (t)]
.a
This is the desired property.

w
w
In particular, for a=b=1, we have

w
L [ f(t) + (t)] = L [f(t)] + L[ (t)]
and for a = -b = 1, we have L [ f(t) - (t)] = L [f(t) ]- L[ (t)]
1 s
2. Change of scale property: If L L[f(t)] = F(s), then L[f(at)] = F , where a is a
a a
positive constant.
Proof: - By definition, we have
st
L[f(at)] = e f (at )dt (1)

Page 118

Let us set at = x. Then expression (1) becomes,
s
1 a
x
L f(at) = e f ( x)dx
a0
1 s
F
a a
This is the desired property.
3. Shifting property: - Let a be any real constant. Then

L [eatf (t)] = F(s-a)
m
Proof :- By definition, we have

L [eatf (t)] = e e at f (t ) dt

This is the desired property. Here we note that the Laplace transform of eat f(t) can be written

down directly by changing s to s-a in the Laplace transform of f(t).

Step Function:
In many Engineering applications, we deal with an important discontinuous function H
(t-a) defined as follows:
0, t a
H (t-a) = 1, t > a
where a is a non-negative constant.
Page 140
www.allsyllabus.com
This function is known as the unit step function or the Heaviside function. The function is
named after the British electrical engineer Oliver Heaviside.The function is also denoted by
u (t-a). The graph of the function is shown below:
H (t-1)
Note that the value of the function suddenly jumps from value zero to the value 1 as t a
from the left and retains the value 1 for all t>a. Hence the function H (t-a) is called the unit step
function.
In particular, when a=0, the function H(t-a) become H(t), where

The Inverse Laplace Transforms

Introduction:
Let L [f (t)]= F(s). Then f(t) is defined as the inverse Laplace transform of F(s) and is
denoted by L-1 F(s). Thus L-1 [F(s)] = f (t).
Linearity Property
Let L-1 [F(s)] = f(t) and L-1 [G(s) = g(t)] and a and b be any two constants. Then
L-1 [a F(s) + b G(s)] = a L-1 [F(s)] + b L-1[G(s)]
