PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONSSlide2
A partial differential equation is a differential equation which involves partial derivatives of one or more dependent variables with respect to one or more independent variables.
Consider the first-order partial differential equation
(1) In which u is the dependent variable and x and y are independent variables.Slide3
The solution is;
where indicates a “partial integration” with respect to “x”, holding y constant, and is an arbitrary function of y only.Thus, solution of Eq (1) is; (2) where is an arbitrary function of y.Slide4
As a second example, consider the second-order partial differential equation:
(3)
We first write this equation in the form
and integrate partially with respect to y, holding x constant, where is an arbitrary function of x. Slide5
We now integrate this result partially with respect to x, holding y constant
(4)
where f defined by f(x)= is an arbitrary function of x and g is an arbitrary function of y.Slide6
The solution of the first-order partial differential equation contains one arbitrary function, and the solution of the second-order partial differential equation contains two arbitrary functions.Slide7
LINEAR PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS OF THE SECOND-ORDER
The general linear partial differential equation of the second order in two independent variables x and y is;
(5) where A, B, C, D, E, F and G are functions of x and y. If G(x,y)=0 for all (x,y), the Equation (5) reduces to; (6)Slide8
HOMOGENOUS LINEAR EQUATIONS OF SECOND ORDER WITH CONSTANT COEFFICIENTS
(7) where a, b and c are constants.The word homogenous refers to the fact that all terms in Equation (7) contain derivatives of the same order (the second).u= f(y+mx) (8) where f is an arbitrary function and m is a constant. Differentiating (8);Slide9
(9)
Substituting (9) into the Equation (7);
Thus f(
y+mx) will be a solution of (7) if m satisfies the quadratic equation am2+bm+c=0 (10)Slide10
we now consider the following four cases of Equation (7)
, and the roots of the quadratic Equation (10) are distinct. ,the roots of the Equation (10) are equal. Slide11
In case (I)
, and the roots of Equation(10) are distinct. Let the distinct roots of Equation (10) m1 and m2. Then the Equation (7) has the solutions: f(y+m1x)+g(y+m2x) Slide12
In case (ii), ,
and the roots of Equation (10) are equal. Let the double root of Equation (10) be m1. The Equation (7) has the solution f(y+m1x), where f is an arbitrary function of its argument. The Equation (7) also has the solution xg(y+m1x), where g is an arbitrary function of its argument. “f(y+m1x)+ xg(y+m1x)” is a solution of Eq.7.Slide13
In case (iii),
The quadratic Equation (10) reduces to
bm+c
=0 and has only one root.Denoting this root by m1, Equation (7) has the solution f(y+m1x) where f is an arbitrary function of its argument.g(x) is an arbitrary function of x only, is also a solution of Equation (7). f(y+m1x)+g(x) is a solution of Equation (7).Slide14
Finally in case (iv),
The equation (10) reduces to c=0, which is impossible.There exist no solution of the form (Equation 8).The differential Equation (7) is;Integrating partially with respect to y twice, we obtainu= f(x)+ yg(x),where f and g are arbitrary functions of x only. f(x)+yg(x) is a solution of Equation (7). Slide15
Example 1:
Find a solution of
(Equation 15) which contains two arbitrary functions. Solution: The quadratic Equation (10) corresponding to the differential equation (Equation 15) is; m2-5m+6=0 and this equation has the distinct roots m1=2, m2=3. Using Equation (11); u= f(y+2x)+g(y+3x) is a solution of Equation (15) which contains two arbitrary functions.Slide16

Solution: The quadratic Equation (14.10) corresponding to the differential equation (Equation 16) is; m2-4m+4=0 and this equation has the double root m1=2, Using Equation (12); u= f(y+2x)+xg(y+2x) is a solution of Equation (16) which contains two arbitrary functions.Slide17
The second-order linear partial differential equation

(WAVE EQUATION, a homogenous linear equation with constant coefficients) This equation is hyperbolic since A=1, B=0, C=-1 and B2-4AC>0. Equation (10) is a special case of the one-dimensional wave equation, which is satisfied by the small transverse displacements of the points of a vibrating string. It has the solution u=f(y+x)+g(y-x) where f and g are arbitrary functions.Slide19
The equation;
(11) (HEATOR DIFFUSION EQUATION, is not homogenous)This equation is parabolic, since A=1, B=C=0, and B2-4AC=0. Equation (11) is a special case of the one-dimensional heat equation (or diffusion equation), which is satisfied by the temperature at a point of a homogenous rod.Slide20
The equation;
(12) (LAPLACE EQUATION, Homogenous linear equation with constant coefficients)This equation is elliptic, since A=1, B=0, C=1 and B2-4AC=-4 <0.Equation (12) is the so-called two-dimensional Laplace equation, which is satisfied by the steady-state temperature at points of a thin rectangular plate.It has the solution; u= f (y+ix)+ g (y-ix), where f and g are arbitrary functions.Slide21
THE METHOD OF SEPERATION OF VARIABLES
In this lesson, we introduce the so-called method of separation of variables. This is a basic method which is very powerful for obtaining solutions of certain problems involving partial differential equations.
Example: Heat or Diffusion Problem We now illustrate the method of separation of variables by applying it to obtain a formal solution of the so-called heat problem.Slide22
The Physical Problem:
The temperature of an infinite horizontal slab of uniform width h is everywhere zero. The temperature at the top of the slab is then set and maintained at Th, while the bottom surface is maintained at zero. Determine the temperature profile in the slab as a function of position and time.Slide23
Solution:
This problem is solved in rectangular coordinates.
Differential equation is; (1) The separation of variables method is now applied. We assume that the solution for T may be separated into the product of one function ψ(z) that depends solely on z, and by a second function θ(t) that depends only on t. T= T(z,t) T= ψ(z) θ(t) = ψ.θSlide24

BC (2) At z=h, T=Th for t>0IC At t=0, T=0 for 0≤z≤hThe following solution results if –λ2 is zero. T0=C1+C2z (5)Substituting BC(1) and BC(2) into Equation (5) gives T0=Th (z/h) (6)
The equation (6) is the steady-state solution to the partial differential equation (PDE).
