BLOCK-INTRODUCTION

The study of differential equations is a wide field in pure and applied mathematics, physics, meteorology, and engineering. All of these disciplines are concerned with the properties of differential equations of various types. Pure mathematics focuses on the existence and uniqueness of solutions, while applied mathematics emphasizes the rigorous justification of the methods for approximating solutions. Differential equations play an important role in modeling virtually every physical, technical, or biological process, from celestial motion, to bridge design, to interactions between neurons. This block contains two units:

Unit I: This unit deals the concept, different methods to solve the Homogeneous linear differential equations with variable coefficients, Simultaneous differential equations and Total differential equations with several solved examples followed by exercise to check the progress of reader.

Homogeneous Linear differential equations. 9

Note: (i) Equation (1) above is called homogeneous because in each term the power of x is same as the order of the derivative in that term. (ii) Since the coefficient in each term is variable, therefore it is known as Homogeneous Linear differential equations with variable coefficients. (iii) This equation is also known as Cauchy’s linear equation. (iv) By the substitution of x =

or z = log x, the above equation (1) is transferred into

the linear differential equation with constant coefficient changing the independent variable x to z as below: If x =

1.6 Simultaneous differential equations

System of differential equations in which number of differential equations will be same as is the number of dependent variables, called the system of Simultaneous differential equations and the differential equations are called Simultaneous differential equations. Present chapter deal with two types of Simultaneous differential equations.

and

Now to solve the above equations we apply elimination method. We first eliminate x (or y) with suitable operation and obtain linear differential equation with constant coefficients in y and t (or in x and t) which can be solved by the method, discussed in article (1.2). Then we find the value of other variable by substituting value of first variable in (1) or (2). Important note: The number of arbitrary constants in general solution is equal to the degree of D in determinant |

Solution: On writing given equations in D-notation form, we have 17

(D- 7) x + y = 0

…. (i)

-2x + (D- 5) y = 0

…. (ii)

To eliminate y we operate (i) by (D- 5 ) and then subtracting, we get (D- 7) x + 2x=0 i.e. (D2-12D+37) x = 0 A.E.

(m2-12m+37) = 0 , m=6 x = e6t(c1cos t +c2sin t)

On substituting the above value of x in (i), we get y = -(D- 7) e6t(c1cos t +c2sin t) =7e6t (c1cos t +c2sin t)-D e6t(c1cos t +c2sin t) =7e6t (c1cos t +c2sin t)- 6e6t (c1cos t +c2sin t)- e6t(-c1 sin t +c2 cost) = e6t (c1cos t +c2sin t) - e6t (-c1 sin t +c2 cost) = e6t [ (c1 - c2 ) cost + (c1+ c2 ) sin t] Hence the general solution is x = e6t (c1cos t +c2sin t), y= e6t [ (c1 - c2 ) cost + (c1+ c2 ) sin t] . Example 2: Solve

Solution: On writing given equations in D-notation form, we have (D+5) x + y =

To eliminate x we operate (ii) by (D+ 5 ) and then adding, we get (D+5)(D+3)y + y =(D+5)

i.e. (D2+8D+15) y = D

2.1 Introduction: A differential equation along with the subsidiary conditions on dependent variable and its derivatives at the some value of the independent variable is known as initial value problem (I.V.P.) while subsidiary conditions on dependent variable and its derivatives given at more than one value of the independent variable is called Boundary value problems (B.V.P.). In many of the engineering field and practical problems we are often confronted with the differential equation whose exact solution cannot be found by standard methods. Such problems cannot solve exactly and we find an approximate solution only. This process of finding approximate solution is called iteration method or successive approximation method. 2.2 Picard’s method of integration: Given differential equation ……... (1) ……... (2)

= From (1), we have ∫ Or

[using (2)] ……... (3)

Now the integral on the right hand side can only evaluated if we known the value of y in terms of x. This is not known. As an initial approximation, we replace y by

in R.H.S. of

(3) and call the value of y on L.H.S. as first approximation of y, so that ∫

,

In the same manner if we substitute y by

in R.H.S. of (3) and call the value of y on

L.H.S. as second approximation of y, we get ∫

Continuing in this way, we get better approximation in each step than the preceding one. At the nth step we get ∫

This process is called Picard’s method of successive approximation. 2.3 Algorithm to solve initial value problem by Picard’s method with solved examples: Algorithm to solve initial value problem by Picard’s method: Step I: Find

BLOCK-INTRODUCTION

Differential equations are mathematically studied from several different perspectives, mostly concerned with their solutions —the set of functions that satisfy the equation. An Ordinary Differential Equation is a differential equation in which the unknown function known as the dependent variable is a function of an independent variable. On the other hand a Partial Differential Equation is a differential equation in which the unknown function is a function of multiple independent variables and the equation involves its partial derivatives. The order of partial differential equations defined similarly to the case of ordinary differential equations. Both ordinary and partial differential equations are broadly classified as linear and nonlinear homogeneous and non homogeneous. This block contains three units:

Unit IV: This unit deals the concept of linear second order equations-Preliminaries, Basic facts, Theorems of Sturm, Sturm-Liouville Boundary value problems, Numbers of zeros, Nonoscillatory equations and principal solutions, Nonoscillation theorems with several solved examples followed by exercise to evaluate reader by himself.

At the end a list of reference books are given for the convenience to the reader.

Then (0, 0) is said to be simple critical point of the system (2) and the system is called almost linear.

 Then the number T with the above property is called periodic solution with period T. 3.4.4 Closed Paths: A non linear system of equation has a closed path if it has a periodic solution. On the other hand a linear system has closed path if the roots of its auxiliary equation are purely imaginary. We can easily understand the concept of closed path with the following example: …. (2)

Geometrically if we analyze (6) we come to the conclusion that for c = 0 , we have 61

as If c

.

The above observations clearly shows that there is only a single closed circular path for

.

3.4.5 Poincare- Bendixson Theorems: Theorem 1: A closed path of the system

necessarily surrounds at least one critical point of this system. Proof: Let C be a simple closed curve and assume that C does not pass through any critical point of the given system. If P= (x, y ) is a point on C then V(x, y) = is a non zero vector and have a definite direction given by then

change by

2

If P moves once around C

, n is an integer and it is called the index of C.

If C shrinks continuously to a smaller simple closed curve

without passing over any

critical point, then index change continuously but index is an integer which cannot change. Theorem 2: Let R be a bounded region of the phase plane together with its boundary, and assume that R does not contain any critical points of the system

If C = [ x(t), y(t)] is a path of (1) that lies in R for some T and remains in R for all t then C is either itself a closed path or it spirals toward a closed path as

,

. Thus in

either case system has a closed path in R. The proof of this theorem can be easily illustrated by an example we discuss in 3.5.4. 62

equation is a relation between dependent variable, independent variables and partial derivatives of dependent variables. 5.1 Partial differential equations of order one and two with examples: 5.1.1 Partial differential equations of order one: The order of partial differential equation is determined by the highest order partial derivative in it. Thus a Partial differential equation is called of order one if it contains highest derivatives of order one i.e. the equation contains Symbolically denoted as (1) (2)

. For examples, , , 84

are partial differential equations. Clearly order of partial differential equation (1) is one and order of (2) is two. We already studied the formation of partial differential equations by eliminating arbitrary functions and arbitrary constants in earlier classes. Thus in the present chapter we restricted ourselves to discuss the solution of linear partial differential equations with constant coefficients. 5.2 Linear and non linear Partial differential equations: 5.2.1 A partial differential equation involving partial derivatives p and q and no higher derivatives is called of order one . In addition, the degree (or power) of p and q is unity (one), then it is a linear partial differential equation of order one. For example, 2xp+ 5yq= z and p

are both linear partial differential equation of order

one. On the other hand

+ 3q = z and x

are both partial differential

equation of order one but non linear. The solutions of linear partial differential equation of order one we already been studied in the previous classes using Lagrange’s and Charpit’s method. So we left this to the reader as practice exercise. 5.3 Linear partial differential equation with constant coefficients: 5.3.1 A partial differential equation is called linear partial differential equation with constant coefficient if it consist higher partial derivatives of z with respect to x and y but the power of each derivatives that occurs and variable z is one and the coefficient of various terms are constant quantities.
