## Solving two or three simultaneous second order dif...

Asked by:

How do i proceed to solve two differential equations?

Two equations two unknowns is easy to solve in polynomial algebraic equations. Example: x+y=5; x-y=3; The solution is x=4; y=1 by adding the equations we arrive at.

The two equations are second order differential equations with two variables say temperature T (x,y) and velocity c(x,y). Assume any simple equation (one dimensional as well i.e. T(x) and c(x) which you can demonstrate with ease, I have not formulated the exact equations and boundary conditions yet for SI Engine simulation.

Thanks for comments, suggestions and answers expected eagerly.

## Calculate differential of commutators...

Asked by:

Hi,

I am trying to realize the following calculation in Maple.

$\left[\sum_{i=0}^n y_i(x) \partial_x^i , \sum_{j=0}^m z_j(x) \partial_x^j \right] \\ = \sum_{i=0}^n \sum_{j=0}^m \sum_{l=0}^i \binom il y_i(x) \left( \partial_x^{i-l} z_j(x)\right) \partial_x^{l+j} \\ - \sum_{j=0}^m \sum_{i=0}^n \sum_{l=0}^j \binom jl z_j(x) \left( \partial_x^{j-l} z_i(x)\right) \partial_x^{l+i} \ .$

Is there a way to make maple understand d/dx as a differential opperator and calculate with it? When i for example try to calculate diff(d/dx, x) it should give me d^2/dx^2 as a result. Unfortunately i don't know how to realize this.

Basic problem is i don't know how to realize operator expressions in maple like for example:

f(x) d/dx      ( f(x) is a smooth function of x here )

where when applied to a function h(x) it should result in f(x) d/dx h(x) .

Is that possible?

Thank you very much in advance.

## Introducing high order derivatives values in fixed...

Asked by:

Hi everybody!

It's nice to join in this forum.

I'm trying to get the analytic solution of the Bernouilli-Euler beam equation, with the next boundary conditions:

w(x,t) = displacements.

w(0,t) = 0   -> It's a cantilever beam. At the x=0 it's clamped.

diff(w(x,t),x) = 0.   -> the gyro in the clamp is zero.

E*I*diff(w(L,t),x,x) = 0  -> the moment at the end of the beam (x=L) is zero.

E*I*diff(w(L,t),x,x,x) = 0  -> the shear at the end of the beam (x=L) is zero too.

I'm not able to introduce the second and the third derivatives as boundary conditions in the pdsolve equation. I post the hole code:

restart;
ode := I*E*(diff(w(x, t), x, x, x, x))+m*(diff(w(x, t), t, t)) = 0;

s := pdsolve(ode, w(x, t));

ode1 := op([2, 1, 1], s);

ode2 := op([2, 1, 2], s);

f1 := op(4, rhs(ode1));

f2 := op(2, rhs(ode2));

sol1 := dsolve(ode1, f1);

sol2 := dsolve(ode2, f2);

sol := rhs(sol1)*rhs(sol2);

conds := [w(0, t) = 0, (D[1](w))(0, t) = 0, eval(I*E*(D[1, 1](w))(x, t), x = L) = 0, eval(I*E*(D[1, 1, 1](w))(x, t), x = L) = 0];

pde := [ode, conds];

pdsolve(pde, w(u, t));

And I get this error:

"Error, (in PDEtools/pdsolve) invalid input: pdsolve/sys expects its 1st argument, SYS, to be of type {list({<>, =, algebraic}), set({<>, =, algebraic})}, but received [I*E*(diff(diff(diff(diff(w(x, t), x), x), x), x))+m*(diff(diff(w(x, t), t), t)) = 0, [w(0, t) = 0, (D[1](w))(0, t) = 0, I*E*(D[1, 1](w))(L, t) = 0, I*E*(D[1, 1, 1](w))(L, t) = 0]]"

It's seems I'm introducing the Boundary conditions of the second and third derivatives in a wrong way, but I can't discover how to do it.

Thanks very much in advance to everybody!!

## Get values from numerical solving...

Asked by:

Hi there,

I'm trying to get the values from the output of a dsolve command.

I have a system of differential equations:

de1 := diff(V(t), t) = V(t)-(1/3)*V(t)^3-W(t)+Ie;
de2 := diff(W(t), t) = 0.8e-1*(V(t)+.7-.8*W(t))

For a range of the independent variable t and for some given values of the parameter Ie, I would like to get the value of the dependent variable V, as well as its minimum/maximum values for each Ie.

Can anybody suggest a solution please?

## Heun functions in Maple...

Asked by:

At the internet site of The Heun Project, a strong declaration is made that only Maple incorporates Heun functions, which arise in the solution of differential equations that are extremely important in physics, such as the solution of Schroedinger's equation for the hydrogen atom.  Indeed solutions appear in Heun functions, which are highly obscure and complicated to use because of their five or six arguments, but when one tries to convert them to another function, nothing seems to work.  For instance, if one inquires of FunctionAdvisor(display, HeunG), the resulting list contains

"The location of the "branch cuts" for HeunG are [sic, is] unknown ..." followed by several other "unknown" and an "unable". Such a solution of a differential equation is hollow.

Incidentally, Maple's treatment of integral equations is very weak -- only linear equations with simple solutions, although procedures by David Stoutemyer from 40 years ago are available to enhance this capability.

When can we expect these aspects of Maple to work properly, for applications in physics?

## Solving a piecewise differential equation system...

Asked by:

Hi there,

I've got the following differential equation system:,

dU/dt = delta·dotD -lambda·U - kappa·U^2
dL/dt = (1-phi)·lambda·U + 1/4 ·kappa·U^2

being phi, delta, kappa, lambda, kappa some fixed parameters of the system, and where dotD (the derivative wrt time of a function D), which is defined a piecewise funtion:

dotD(t)=1/(3·T1)·DT for t in [0,T1]

dotD(t)=2/(3·(T2-T1-T))·DT for t in [T1+T,T2]

where T and DT are also known, and T1 approaches 0, and T2 approaches T1+T.

Setting the equation system in Maple and trying to solve it, gives a NULL result. However, trying to solve each piece separately seems to work fine.

Why is this?

Furthermore, taking limits for the [T1+T,T2] part (having solved each piece separately) yields an invalid limits point error. Ain't the possibility to take limits for both parameters at the same time?

Any ideas?

This is the Maple worksheet: MaplePrimes_LQ_model_solve.mw

Thank you.

## Analyzing a differential equation system with vary...

Asked by:

Hi there,
I have a set of differential equations whose solution, Jacobian matrix and its eigenvalues, direction field, phase portrait and nullclines, need to be computed.

Each of the equations has a varying parameter.

I know how to get the above for a single parameter value, but when I set a range of values for the parameters, Maple is not able to handle all cases as I would expect: solving the differential equation system:

eq1 := x*(1.6*(1-(1/100)*x)-phi*y)
eq2 := (x/(15+x)-0.3e-1*x-.4)*y+.6+theta
desys := [eq1, eq2];
vars := [x, y];
steadyStates := map2(eval, vars, [solve(desys)])

already yields an error:
Error, (in unknown) invalid input: Utilities:-SetEquations expects its 2nd argument, equations, to be of type set({boolean, algebraic, relation}), but received {-600*y+(Array(1..2, {(1) = 8400, (2) = 15900})), Array(1..5, {(1) = 0, (2) = 0, (3) = 0, (4) = 0, (5) = 0})}

The equations are the following:
de1 := diff(x(t), t) = x(t)*(1.6*(1-(1/100)*x(t))-phi*y(t));
de2 := diff(y(t), t) = (x(t)/(15+x(t))-0.3e-1*x(t)-.4)*y(t)+.6+theta

the parameters being:
phi:=[0 0.5 1 1.5 2]
theta:=[5. 10.]

How can I handle the situation so that Maple computes each of the above for each combination of the parameters?

I would like to avoid using two for loops and having to store all results in increasingly bigger and complicated arrays.

The worksheet at issue is this: MaplePrimes_Tumour_model_phi_theta_variation.mw

## abs function dsolve...

Asked by:

Hi all,

I am trying to solve the following differential equation numerically using dsolve,

y * abs (y''') = -1

y(0) =1, y'(0) = 0, y''(0)=0

it works fine when tthe absolute function is not there, i.e. yy''' = -1.

Do you have any suggestion?

## Compute and display isoclines (nullclines) for an ...

Asked by:

Hi there,

I would like to compute and display the nullclines of a set of ordinary differential equations.

AFAIK, I can compute the nullclines in Maple by defining the equations and solving the system

e.g.:

# Define the equations
eq1 := u(t)*(1-u(t)/kappa)-u(t)*v(t) = 0;
eq2 := g*(u(t)-1)*v(t) = 0;

# Solve the system (i.e. compute the nullclines)
sol := solve({eq1, eq2}, {u(t), v(t)});

However, I am not quite able to imagine how to display them over a dfieldplot or a phaseportrait.

Attached is an example with some differential equations, and their vector field and trajectories: MaplePrimes_Predator_prey_model_nullclines.mw.

It can be use to illustrate how to (compute and) display the nullclines.

Thank you,

jon

## Solving non-linear ODE...

Asked by:

Hi,

I'm trying to solve the following non-linear ODE numerically:

by ececuting

but maple gives me this error-message:

"Error, (in dsolve/numeric/make_proc) Could not convert to an explicit first order system due to 'RootOf'"

I couldnt find any useful information in the manual. What does this error mean? Is there something wrong with my maple code or is there just no solution for this particulare differential equation?

Thanks in advance

## solution of differential equations...

Asked by:

The ability of Maple to solve differential equations is unsurpassed, but when the solutions appear in terms of Heun functions that result is disappointing because it is either difficult or impossible to convert those functions to other functions more commonly used and for which plots are readily generated.

Specifically, does any reader have a suggestion what to do with Heun C and Heun G functions?  In principle, they seem to be related to 1F1 and 2F1 hypergeometric functions, but the conversion seems not to succeed, and it is not obvious how to make it succeed.  In both cases of interest, the literature contains hints of solutions in other functions.

It seems that a solution of a differential equation in terms of Heun functions is not a solution at all.
