Solution of Linear Partial Differential Equation

This document discusses several methods for solving linear and nonlinear partial differential equations: 1. Separation of variables and integral transforms can be used to solve linear PDEs by converting them to systems of ordinary differential equations or simpler PDEs. 2. Methods like fundamental solutions, superposition, and change of variables exploit properties of linear PDEs to solve them or reduce them to known forms. 3. Techniques including characteristics, finite differences, finite elements, and analytical approximations can also be applied to solve linear and nonlinear PDEs numerically or approximately.

Solution of linear

partial differential
equation.
• Separation of variables
Linear partial differential equations are convertible in system of
ordinary differential equation by separating the variables.

• Integral Transform.
An integral transform may transform the PDE to a simpler one,
in particular, a separable PDE. This corresponds to diagonalizing
an operator
• Fundamental solution.
Inhomogeneous equations can often be solved (for constant
coefficient PDEs, always be solved) by finding the fundamental
solutions the solution for a point source), then taking the
convolution with the boundary conditions to get the solution.
• Superposition principle.
The superposition principle applies to any linear system,
including linear systems of PDEs. A common visualization
of this concept is the interaction of two waves in phase
being combined to result in a greater amplitude
• Change of variables.
Often a PDE can be reduced to a simpler form with a known
solution by a suitable change of variable.
• Method of characteristics.
In special cases, one can find characteristic curves on which the
equation reduces to an ODE – changing coordinates in the
domain to straighten these curves allows separation of
variables, and is called the method of characteristics.
• Direct difference method.
First transforming by analytical methods, the mixed problem to
an equivalent purely elliptic boundary value problem and then
solve the resulting problem by finite differences.
• finite elements methods.
In the results of the finite element method for the symmetric
positive systems are used to obtain the numerical solution of a
boundary value problem for the tricomi equation.
• Analytical approximative methods.
The finite difference and the finite elements methods are only
two of the possible approaches for numerical integration of
equations of mixed type.
Solution of Non-
linear partial
differential
equation.
• Fourier Method.
It particularly used with periodic boundary conditions or
regions that can become periodic easily.

• Spectral decomposition.
Process of reforming a matrix in matrix terms from its eigen
values and eigen vectors.

• Small parameter method


A method for constructing approximate solutions of differential
equations and systems depending on a parameter.
• Perturbation method
The basic idea of perturbation theory is to find analytic
approximation to solutions of equations.
• Tanh-sech method
• Extended tanh method
• Hyperbolic function method
The extended hyperbolic function method is used to derive
abundant exact solutions for generalized forms of nonlinear
heat conduction and Huxley equations.
• Jacobi elliptic function expansion method
It is used to construct the exact periodic solutions of nonlinear
wave equation.
• F-expansion method
It is used to seek exact solutions of nonlinear evolution solution
of nonlinear evolution equations with the aid of symbolic
computation we chose schrodinger-kdv equation with a source
to illustrate the validity and advantages of the proposed
method.
• First integral method
This method can be applied to nonintegrable equations as well
as to integrable ones. This method is based on theory of
commutative algebra.
• The sine-cosine method
