Sheet No. (3) - Partial Differential Equations PDEs

This document contains an assignment sheet with 4 questions on partial differential equations (PDEs). Question 1 asks students to solve the 1-D wave equation for a string with given initial displacement and boundary conditions. Question 2 asks students to determine the heat distribution in a rod with different initial temperatures at each end. Question 3 asks students to determine the potential distribution over a square plate with given boundary conditions using the Laplace equation. Question 4 asks students to solve the 1-D Consolidation equation using Laplace transforms.

Q1/ The 1-D Wave Equation:

A string is stretched to give initial displacement 𝑢(𝑥, 0) = 𝑓(𝑥):


2𝑥 − 4𝑥 2 0 < 𝑥 < 𝐿/2
𝑓(𝑥) = |
0 𝐿/2 < 𝑥 < 𝐿
The initial velocity is zero and u (0, t) = u (L, t) = 0.
