3.1 SPLINE FORMULA TO SOLVE PARABOLIC LINEAR

PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATION HAVING ONE

SPACE VARIABLE :

Consider parabolic PDE having one space variable.

with Dirichilet boundary conditions

0 t)u(l,

0 t)u(0,

=

= …(3.1.1a)

along with initial condition,

l x 0 ; f(x) 0) u(x, ≤≤= …(3.1.1b)

We divide the region l x 0 ≤≤ into, say n-equal

subinterval each of width h. Let us denote the points of

subdivisions by n210 x....., , x, x,x . Let us have the solution on

hand at time tj∆ at the mesh points n210 x....., , x, x,x . Let j i,u

denote the value of u at the thi mesh point at time tj∆ .

We approximate the function u at time tj∆ by a cubic

spline S(X): calculate the value of )(xS i′′ by solving set

of simultaneous equations given by (2.4.15a) for i = 1, 2, 3,

…, n-1. We should note that values of u at x = 0 and x = 1

are already known. Now discretizing left side of equation

(3.1.1) by forward difference formula and replacing right

side by the second derivatives )(xS i′′ at thj level like explicit

scheme in finite difference. We get

j i,2

j i,1j i, S c t / )u - (u ′′=∆+ …(3.1.3)

where j i,S ′′ denotes )(xS i′′ at thj level.

102

Substitute values of j i,S ′′ from (3.1.3) into equation

(2.4.15a) and get

…(3.1.4)

where 22 ht / c r ∆= . This set of simultaneous equations can

now be solved equation (3.1.4) known as cubic spline

Explicit formula to solve equation (3.1.1).

The finite difference replacement of (3.1.1)

corresponding to implicit scheme is

…(3.1.5)

where 1j i,j i, S ,S +′′′′ denote second derivatives at i xx = at the

time level j and j + 1 respectively.

However, second derivatives at th1) (j+ level cannot be

computed as the values of u are not known. We can express

(3.1.4) in terms of u as follows.

We use the relationship (2.14.5a) and rewrite it in the

following forms.

)u - u 2 - (u )(6/h S S S j 1,ij i,j1,-i2

j 1,ij i,j 1,-i ++ =′′+′′+′′ …(3.1.6)

putting the value of 1j i,S +′′ etc from (3.1.5) into (3.1.6), we get

…(3.1.8)

where 1) -(n ...., 3, 2, 1, i , ht / c r 22 =∆= . Above equation

(3.1.8) is known as cubic spline implicit formula to solve

equation (3.1.1).

Now 1j n,1j 0, u and u ++ are known due to the prescribed

boundary conditions. The set of simultaneous equations

obtained in explicit as well as implicit scheme contains only

(n – 1) unknowns. These (n – 1) equations in (n – 1)

unknown can be solved by any standard method.

Once the values of u are known at th1) (j+ level, we can

proceed to compute the next level (j + 2) by repeating the

same process. For each set of simultaneous equations in

(n – 1) unknowns give tri-diagonal matrix. It can be solved

by any standard method, thus the method can proceed by

steps.

The convergence and stability of these methods totally

depend upon the values of r. For explicit scheme, we have to

choose the value of r such that 1/2 r 0 ≤≤ . Implicit scheme

has advantage that there is no limitation on the value of r

for convergence and stability along with small values are

more accurate. Values much larger than unity are not

desirable. These two methods will be discussed late on by

taking its actual approximation to a problem.

3.2 FLOW OF ELECTRICITY IN A CABLE OF

TRANSMISSION LINES :

This is the study of the derivation of partial differential

equations from physical principles, we consider the flow of

electricity in a cable of transmission line. We assume the

cable to be imperfectly insulated, so that there is both

capacitance and current leakage to ground. Figure (3.2.1a)

shows such a cable with the electromotive source x = 0 and

the load x = 1.

Figure (3.2.1)

Flow of electricity in a cable

Here the current returns through the earth. Consider

an element PQ of the cable with P at a distance x from the

source e(x, t), the potential i(x, t), the current at p at any

time t. Let R denote the resistance, L inductance, G the

Page 6: CHAPTER – 1 - shodhganga.inflibnet.ac.inshodhganga.inflibnet.ac.in/bitstream/10603/3460/11/11_chapter 3.pdf · 3.1 Spline Formula To Solve Parabolic ... 3.8 Spline Solutions With

105

conductance (leak ness) and C the capacitance per unit

length of the cable. Let x∆ be the length of the element PQ

and i i ∆+ , e e ∆+ be the current and the electromotive force,

respectively, at Q. Figure (3.2.1b) gives the electrical circuit

for the element PQ. Since the drop in voltage from P to Q is

due to the resistance xR∆ and inductance xL∆ , we have

t / i x)(L i x)(R e - ∂∂∆+∆=∆ …(3.2.1)

Again, since the drop in the current t -∆ is due to the

conductance xG∆ and capacitance xC∆ , we have

t / e x)(C e x)(G i - ∂∂∆+∆=∆ …(3.2.2)

Dividing equations (3.2.1) and (3.2.2) by x∆ and taking the

limit as 0 x →∆ , we get

0 Ri )t / i( L x / i =+∂∂+∂∂ …(3.2.3)

and

0 Ge )t / e( C x / i =+∂∂+∂∂ …(3.2.4)

Differentiating equation (3.2.3) with respect to x and

equation (3.2.4) with respect to t, we get

0 x / iR )t x / i( L x / e 222 =∂∂+∂∂∂+∂∂

and

0 t / eG ) t / e( C t x / i 222 =∂∂+∂∂+∂∂∂

If we eliminate the term tx / i2 ∂∂∂ between these two

equations and then substitute for t / i ∂∂ from equation

(3.2.3), we obtain

RGe t / e LG) (Re ) t / e( Le x / e 2222 +∂∂++∂∂=∂∂ …(3.2.5)

Similarly we obtain

RGi t / i LG) (Re ) t / i( Le x / i 2222 +∂∂++∂∂=∂∂ …(3.2.6)

Page 7: CHAPTER – 1 - shodhganga.inflibnet.ac.inshodhganga.inflibnet.ac.in/bitstream/10603/3460/11/11_chapter 3.pdf · 3.1 Spline Formula To Solve Parabolic ... 3.8 Spline Solutions With

106

Equation (3.2.5) and (3.2.6) are known as the telephone

equations.

Two special case of the telephone equations are

t / e Rc x / e 22 ∂∂=∂∂ …(3.2.7)

t / i Rc x / i 22 ∂∂=∂∂ ...(3.2.8)

Equation (3.2.7) and (3.2.8) are obtained from

equations (3.2.5) and (3.2.6) by taking G = L = 0 i.e. leakage

and inductance are negligible, for example, in telegraphic

transmission through submarine cables. These equations

are known as telegraphic equations. Mathematically these

equations are similar to parabolic type linear PDE having

one space variable. Equations (3.2.7) and (3.2.8) can be

rewrite as

xxt u ) l/RC ( u =

where u(x, t) stands for either i(x, t) or e(x, t).

3.3 (A) SPLINE SOLUTIONS WITH EXPLICIT SCHEME :

Let xxt u 1/Rc u = …(3.3.1)

Let the initial current in the cable be f(x), then the

initial condition is

u(x, 0) = f(x) …(3.3.2)

where f(x) is the given function. Also the boundary

conditions are

u(0, t) = 0 and u(l, t) = 0 ∀ t …(3.3.3)

We shall determine the solution of the equation (3.3.1)

satisfying equations (3.3.2) and (3.3.3). Suppose the length

of the cable is l and the given function is

1 x 0 ; sin f(x) <<= π …(3.3.4)

Page 8: CHAPTER – 1 - shodhganga.inflibnet.ac.inshodhganga.inflibnet.ac.in/bitstream/10603/3460/11/11_chapter 3.pdf · 3.1 Spline Formula To Solve Parabolic ... 3.8 Spline Solutions With

107

Let length of the cable is subdivided into 20

subintervals. We get 1/20 x h =∆= . Also let 1/400 t =∆ and

RC = 1/100, we get r = 0.01 which gives

1 + 6r = 1.06 and 4 – 12r = 3.88

Substituting the values of 1 + 6r and 4 – 12r in

equation (3.1.4) and using initial conditions, we get

For j = 0

Since 1 11,1 9, u and u are symmetric, we get

5.973899 u 4 u 2 i 210,1 9, =+

Here we get 10 algebraic equations in 10 unknowns

with tri-diagonal matrix. This system of equations is

solved easily by any well known method like crout’s method,

Page 9: CHAPTER – 1 - shodhganga.inflibnet.ac.inshodhganga.inflibnet.ac.in/bitstream/10603/3460/11/11_chapter 3.pdf · 3.1 Spline Formula To Solve Parabolic ... 3.8 Spline Solutions With

108

similarly for j = 1, we get another 10 algebraic equations.

This can be solved easily by above method. Proceeding in

this way, the results obtained by explicit method are shown

in table (3.3.1) and plotted in figure (3.3.1).

3.3(B) SPLINE SOLUTIONS WITH IMPLICIT METHOD :

In this section we discuss the solution of equation

(3.3.1) by implicit scheme. Substitute the values of r and

using initial conditions in (3.1.8), we get,

For j = 0 i.e. at t = 1/400

0.934639 u (0.97) u (4.06) u (0.97) 1, i 1 2,1 1,1 0, =++=

since 0 u 0,1 = , we get

since 1 11,1 9, u and u are symmetric, we get,

5.974638 u (4.06) u (0.97) 1 10,1 9, =+

Here we get 10 algebraic equations in 10 unknowns

with tri-diagonal matrix. This can be solved by any

standard method. Similarly, applying above process are, we

get the solution at t = 1/200, 3/400, 1/100, 1/80 etc. and

solutions.

From the table (3.3.3) it is clear that, the spline

solutions are fairly agree with exact solutions up to five

digits of decimal points. Figure (3.3.3(a)) indicates the error

analysis which compares the exact solution with spline

solution obtained by both the methods at t = 1/80. The

figure (3.3.3(b)) gives good agreement of curves presenting

3.4 THE HEAT CONDUCTION PROBLEM :

Consider a thin long rod surrounded except at

the ends with a material impervious to heat unless all the

points of the rod are at the same temperature, heat will flow

along the rod. If the rod is homogeneous and of the same

cross section throughout, we may schematically regard the

rod as a line, since the temperature of all the points of any

cross section will sensibly the same. When heat is flowing

uniformly, it is experimentally known that the amount of

heat flow across any portion of the rod is proportional to the

difference of temperatures of the end points of the portion,

to the area of cross – section and to the end points of the

flow and inversely proportional to the length of the portion

considered. Taking the limiting case when the length of the

portion considered tends to zero, we obtain the quantity of

heat 1Q that flows across any section of the rod as,

A xu

per sec …(3.4.1)

where, k : Coefficient of conductivity

u : The temperature at a distance x from some

fixed point

on the rod

and A : Area of cross section

The negative being attached as the heat flows from a

higher to lower temperature. If we take the section at a

point x x δ+ , then a quantity of a heat that flow out across

this section is given by

where S = Specific heat

and P = Density of the rod

equating the values of 21 Q - Q from (3.4.3) and (3.4.4) and

dividing by xδ , we have

In shortly, we summarize these phenomena by

considering a homogeneous rod of length L. The rod is

sufficiently thin, so that the heat is disturbed equally over

insulated and therefore there is no heat loss through the

boundary. The temperature distribution of the rod is given

by the solution of initial boundary value problem

3.5 (A) SPLINE SOLUTIONS WITH EXPLICIT METHOD :

We illustrate the problem by considering a

homogeneous rod of length l meter and fluid having unit

viscosity (v) and the temperature is given by function f(x) =

x (1 – x), then phenomena can be written as,

0 t ; 1 x 0 u a u xxt ><<= …(3.5.1)

and

1 x 0 x)- (1 x 0) u(x, ≤≤= …(3.5.3)

We shall determine the solution of the equation (3.5.1)

satisfying equation (3.5.2) and (3.5.3).

Let us take 500

a = 1 and r = 0.2 which gives,

1 + 6r = 2.2 and 4 – 12r = 1.6

Substituting the values of (1 + 6r) and (4 – 12r) in

equation (3.1.4) and using initial conditions, we get

for j = 0, i = 1,

with tri-diagonal matrix. This system of equation is solved

by any well known method. Similarly, for j = 1, we get

another 9 algebraic equations. This can be solved by above

a x M =∆ and b y N =∆ . Let us denote the points of

subdivisions by xM......, , x, x,x 210 and yN ......, ,y ,y ,y 210 . Let

k - j i,u denote the value of u at the thj) (i, mesh point at the

time tk∆ . For simplicity, let us take a square region

N M a, y x, 0 =≤≤ and h(say) y x =∆=∆ .

We approximate the function u at time t∆ by a cubic

spline S(x). Discretizing the left side of equation (3.6.1) by

forward difference formula and replacing right side by twice

the second derivative i.e. )(x S 2 ij′′ at thk level like explicit

scheme in finite difference, we get

)S(2 c t / )u - (u k ij,2

k ij,1k ij, ′′=∆+ …(3.6.2)

where is k ij,S ′′ denotes )(x S ij′′ at thk

level.

Now with the help of equation (2.4.15a) and the value

of k ij,S ′′ obtained from equation (3.6.2) we get,

where 22 ht / c r ∆= these set of (N – 1) x (N – 1) equation in

(N – 1) x (N – 1) unknowns can be solved by any well –

known method. The above set of simultaneous equations

gives square matrix. The equation (3.6.3) is known as cubic

spline explicit formula to solve equation (3.6.1). For this

method, the maximum possible value of r is ¼ but the

equation (3.6.1) having two space variables and equal grid

spacing, hence r < 1/6 is required for stability and

convergence. The difficulty while using the explicit scheme

is that the restriction on t∆ requires inordinately many rows

of calculations. In such case one looks for a method in

which t∆ can be made larger without lost of stability. The

implicit method was such a method.

The implicit method, the finite difference scheme of

equation (3.6.1) is

where 1k ij,k ij, S and S +′′′′ denote second derivatives of S(x) at

implicit formula to solve equation (3.6.1). Like scheme, we

get (N – 1) x (N – 1) simultaneous equations in (N – 1) x

(N – 1) unknowns. These equations with square matrix can

be solved by any standard method.

In both the methods, once the values of u are known at th1) (k + level, we can proceed to compute the next level (k +

2) by same techniques as above. The coefficient matrix of

the combined equation is a square matrix, however, the

system becomes a tri-diagonal one when separate cases are

handled. These two methods will be discussed later on by

taking its actual approximation to a problem.

3.7 HEAT FLOW IN A THIN RECTANGULAR PLATE :

Consider the flow of heat in a thin rectangular plate

with sides of length y andx ∆∆ along co-ordinals x and y.

The amount of heat entering the element through the

side AB in time t∆ is

t x)y/( y)(K - x ∆∂∂∆

and that leaving the element through the opposite side CD

is

t x)y/( y)(K - x x ∆∂∂∆ ∆+

where K is the thermals conductional of the material and

u(x, y, t) is the temperature function. The negative signs are

taken because the heat flows in the direction of decreasing

temperature. Hence the quantity of heat remaining in the

plate as a result of entry through the side AB and exit

through the side CD is

upto a first approximation.

Similarly corresponding difference in the heat entering

and leaving through the remaining pair of opposite side is

tx }y )xu/( {K 22 ∆∆∆∂∂ …(3.7.2)

Hence the total heat retained by the plate in time t∆ is

the sum of results (3.7.1) and (3.7.2), which is equal to the

heat required to raise the temperature of the element by u∆ .

Thus we have

uS y)x ( t yx } )yu/( )xu/( {K 2222 ∆∆∆=∆∆∆∂∂+∂∂ ρ …(3.7.3)

where ρ is the density and S be the specific heat of the

plate. Dividing the equation (3.7.3) by Sy x ρ∆∆ and taking

limit 0 t →∆ , we get

)yu/ xu/( c t u/ 22222 ∂∂+∂∂=∂∂

where ρK/S c2 = …(3.7.4)

which is parabolic PDE having two space variables x and y

and time variable t.

Consider the edges of thin square plate of side 1 (figure

3.7.2) are kept at temperature zero and faces are perfectly

insulated.

The given problem with boundary and initial

conditions is solved by explicit as well as implicit method as

follows.

3.8 (A) SPLINE SOLUTIONS WITH EXPLICIT METHOD :

We shall determine the solution of equation (3.7.3)

satisfying boundary conditions (3.7.5) and initial conditions

given by the equation (3.7.6) respectively, by using the

explicit formula given in equation (3.6.3).

Let 1/400 t and 0.001 c 1/20, h 2 =∆== which gives

R = 0.001

Hence 1 + 12r = 1.012

4 – 24r = 3.976

Substituting the values of 1 + 12r, 4 – 24r with initial

and boundary conditions in equation (3.6.3), we get

For k = 0

For j = 1

i = 1 0.146220 u 4u u 1 1, 2,1 1, 1, 1 1, 0, =++

Since 0 u 1 1, 0, = we have

0.146220 u 4u 1 1, 2,1 1, 1, =+

i = 2 0.288841 u 4u u 1 1, 3,1 1, 2, 1 1, 1, =++

i = 3 0.424349 u 4u u 1 1, 4,1 1, 3, 1 1, 2, =++

Similarly we get 19 x 19 simultaneous equations in 19

x 19 unknowns, for j = 1, 2, 3, ……, 19 where i = 1, 2, 3,

….., 19. This can be solved by any standard method. Once

the results are obtained, for results for th1) (k + level, results

for th2) (k + level are obtained in similar manner discussed

as above. Due to the symmetry of the solutions, the results

are given for 0.5 y 0 0.5, x 0 ≤≤≤≤ at t = 1/400, 3/400 and

1/80 respectively in the table (3.8.1(a)) – (3.8.1(c)). Results

are obtained by explicit method for y = 0.25 plotted in the

figures (3.8.1).

3.8(B) SPLINE SOLUTIONS WITH IMPLICIT METHOD :

Using implicit formula given by equation (3.6.7), the

solution of equation (3.7.3) satisfying boundary and initial

conditions, those are given in section (3.7) is obtained as

follows :

For k = 0

For j = 1

i = 1, 0.146224 u (0.994) u (4.012) u (0.994) 1 1, 2,1 1, 1, 1 1, 0, =++

i = 2, 0.288848 u (0.994) u (4.012) u (0.994) 1 1, 3,1 1, 2, 1 1, 1, =++

i = 3, 0.424359 u (0.994) u (4.012) u (0.994) 1 1, 4,1 1, 3, 1 1, 2, =++

Proceeding in this way, we get 19 x 19 simultaneous

equations in 19 x 19 unknowns, for j = 1, 2, 3, ……, 19

where i = 1, 2, 3, ….., 19. Solving the set of equations by

any well known method, the temperature distribution in the

plate is obtained. Once the results are obtained, for results

for th1) (k + level, the results for th2) (k + level are obtained in

similar manner discussed as above. Due to the symmetry of

the solutions, the results are given for 0.5 y 0 0.5, x 0 ≤≤≤≤ at

t = 1/400, 3/400 and 1/80 respectively in the tables

(3.8.2(a)) – (3.8.2(c)). Results are obtained by implicit

method for y = 0.25 plotted in the figures (3.8.2(a)).

3.9 SPLINE FORMULA TO SOLVE HYPERBOLIC

PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATION WITH ONE

SPACE VARIABLES :

The general form of hyperbolic PDE with one space

variable x and time variable t is given by

0 t , L x 0 ; 2xu / 2 / 2c t 2u / 2 ><<∂∂=∂∂ …(3.9.1)

with a Dirichilet boundary conditions, namely

u(0, t) = 0

u(L, t) = 0 …(3.9.2)

and two initial conditions at t = 0 (Cauchy conditions)

u(x, 0) = f(x)

)()0,(u t xgx = …(3.9.3)

In equation (3.9.1), 2c is a constant term, it depends

upon some physical quantities in case of different problems.

Divide the region L x 0 ≤≤ into say n sub – intervals

each of width h) (x =∆ such that L x n =∆ . The subscript j

denotes time and i for the positions. The points of

subdivisions are n (1) 0 i ; x i = . Let j i,u denote the solution

of equation (3.9.1) at thj) (i, mesh point. Discretize the left

hand side of PDE (3.9.1) by the central difference formula

like finite difference and right side by second derivative of

cubic spline S(x) i.e. )(xS i′′ at the thj) (i, mesh point, one can

get

)S( c t)( / ) u 2u - u ( j i,22

1- j i,j i,1j i, ′′=∆++ …(3.9.4)

where j i,S ′′ = second derivative of cubic spline S(x) i. e. )(xS i′′

Page 46: CHAPTER – 1 - shodhganga.inflibnet.ac.inshodhganga.inflibnet.ac.in/bitstream/10603/3460/11/11_chapter 3.pdf · 3.1 Spline Formula To Solve Parabolic ... 3.8 Spline Solutions With

145

at time tj∆ substituting the values of j i,S ′′ from equation

(3.9.4) into (2.4.15a), the following relation is obtained.

where ht / c r ∆= i = 1(1) n – 1

Above formula is known as cubic spline explicit

formula at to solve hyperbolic PDE of the form (3.9.1). It is

clear that above formula is applied for all values of 1 j≥ .

However, for j = 0, it becomes

] u 4u u [ -

…(3.9.6)

where i = 1(1) n – 1

it involves the term u 1- 1,i+ , 1- i,u and 1- 1,-iu which are

unknowns. To deal with them, we consider the function u =

u(x, t) to be extended backward in time, the term 1- tt = make

a good sense. Most of the time, we get periodic functions for

u versus at a given point, we can consider zero time as an

arbitrary point at which we know the value of u. So, to get

the values for the fictitious points at 1- tt = we use the initial

condition (initial velocity)

0 at t g(x) t u / ==∂∂

By central difference approximation, we have

)g(x t 2 / )u - (u 0) x,(u i1- i,1 i,t =∆=

giving 0 at t t )2g(x - u u i1 i,1- i, =∆= only

i = 1(1) n – 1 …(3.9.7)

146

The values of 0(1)n i ; u 1- i, = and using initial and

boundary conditions with equation (3.9.6) gives system of

(n – 1) simultaneous linear equations in (n – 1) unknowns.

The system has a tri-diagonal matrix, which can be solved

by any well-known method. After calculating the values of u

for j = 0, we apply equation (3.9.5) for 1 j≥ , we get (n – 1)

simultaneous linear equations in (n – 1) unknowns with

tri-diagonal matrix, again 1 r ≤ is the required condition for

convergence and stability of this cubic spline explicit

method.

Just like the implicit scheme for obtaining solution of

parabolic partial differential equations, we have implicit

scheme for hyperbolic differential equations. Implicit

scheme is unconditionally stable i.e. stable for all the values

for r. In implicit method the discretization of the differential

equation at any mesh point (i, j) is done by replacing time

derivative by the central difference formula as done in

explicit scheme and the space derivative is replaced by

average of second derivatives of cubic spline S(x) at the

th1) - (j and th1) (j+ level i.e. /2)S S( 1j i,1-j i, +′′+′′ , equation (3.9.1)

becomes,

/2)S S( c )t ( / )u 2u - (u 1j i,1-j i,22

1-j i,j i,1j i, ++ ′′+′′=∆+ …(3.9.8)

The values of 1j i,S +′′ obtained from equation (3.11.8) and

with the help of equation (2.4.15a) the following relation is

obtained.

The above equation (3.9.9) is known as cubic spline

implicit formula to solve hyperbolic PDE of the form (3.9.1).

Like explicit scheme, described as above, the equation

(3.9.9) gives (n – 1) simultaneous linear equations in (n – 1)

unknowns with the coefficient matrix of tri-diagonal form.

For j = 0, here we can also use the initial condition in

similar manner described as above.

3.10 THE FLOW OF ELECTRICITY IN THE

TRANSMISSION LINES :

The problem is already discussed in chapter – 3 in

section 3.2. In addition to that, for higher frequency the

effect of R and G are negligible and equations (3.2.4) and

(3.2.5) reduce to

where u stands for either i(x, t). L is the inductance and C is

the capacitance per unit length of the transmission line i.e.

cable. This equation is known as hyperbolic PDE with one

space variable x and time variable t.

Let l = length of the transmission line = 1 and using

following initial and boundary conditions, the solution of

above equation (3.10.1) i.e. the current distribution is

obtained as follows.

3.11(A) SPLINE SOLUTIONS WITH EXPLICIT METHOD :

Using initial and boundary conditions described by

equations (3.10.2) and (3.10.3), the solutions of equation

(3.10.1) are obtained by explicit formula given in the

equation (3.9.5).

Let the length of the transmission line i.e. l = 1 divide

the region 1 x 0 ≤≤ into 10 sub – intervals each of width h =

0.1. Let L.C = 0.01, and 0.01 t =∆ . These gives r = 0.01.

Hence, 2.0006 r62 2 =+ and 7.9988 r128 2 =−

Having calculated the values of 1(1)n i ; u 1- i, = from

equation (3.9.7) with initial conditions, substitute the values

of 1- i,u and 2r62 + , 2r128 − into the equation (3.9.6) we get,

The above five simultaneous equations in five

solved. Once the values of u are known at the first level of

time, the process can be repeated for second time level and

so on. It should be noted that the number of unknowns are

reduced because of the symmetry of the problem otherwise

we would have obtained nine simultaneous equations for

nine internal mesh points. The results obtained by the

explicit method are given in the table (3.11.1) and are

plotted in the figures (3.11.1). Due to the symmetry of the

problem, results are given for 0.5 x 0 ≤≤ only.

3.11(B) SPLINE SOLUTIONS WITH IMPLICIT METHOD:

Using the same initial and boundary conditions and

the values of other parameters discussed in section 3.11(A),

the solution of equation (3.11.1) is obtained by implicit

formula that is given by the equation (3.9.9), derived as

follows.

Since 1 6,1 4, u andu are same,

5.902113 u (4.0006) u (1.9994) 1 5,1 4, =+

The above five simultaneous equations in five

unknowns with coefficient matrix tri-diagonal one, is solved

by any well-known method. Like the explicit scheme, once

the values of u are known at the first level of time, the

process can be repeated for second time level and so on.

Due to symmetry of the problem the numbers of unknowns

are reduced otherwise we get nine equations in nine

3.12 VIBRATING STRING PROBLEM :

Many problems in mathematical physics reduce to the

solving of partial differential equations. The partial

differential equations play an important role in the theory of

elasticity, hydraulics and other some branches of

engineering. One of the most important problems in

mathematical physics is the vibration of a stretched string.

Simplicity and frequent occurrence in many branches of

mathematical physics make it classical example in the

theory of partial differential equations.

Let us consider a stretched string of length L fixed at

the end points. The problem here is to determine the

equation of motion which characterizes the position u(x, t)

of the string at time t after an initial disturbance is given.

In order to obtain a simple equation we make the

following assumptions.

(1) The string is flexible and elastic that is the string

cannot resist bending moments and thus the tension

in the string is always in the direction of the tangent to

the existing profile of the string.

(2) There is no elongation of a single segment of the string

and hence by Hook’s law the tension is constant.

(3) The weight of the string is small compared with the

tension in the string.

(4) The deflection is small compared with the length of the

string.

(5) The slope of the displaced string at any point is small

compared with unity.

String position and tension

Let T be the tension at the end points as shown in

figure (3.12.1). Consider the vibration of an elastic string of

length L in the vertical plane, the ends of which are fixed.

Take the origin at one fixed end, the x-axis along the length

of the string (when undisturbed) and the y-axis

perpendicular to it.

The displacement u of any point of the string is a

function of two variables, x its distance from o, and the time

t. To obtain the relation between u, x and t, take a small

element xδ of the string at a distance x from the origin of

which the displacement by y at time t. Let m be the mass

per unit length of the string. Then considering vertical

displacement of these elements, its acceleration is 22 tu / δδ .

If δφφφ and + be the angle made by the tangents at the

extremities of this elements (along which the tension t at

This is the PDE having the vibrations of the string and

is called the WAVE equations, which is of HYPERBOLIC

Suppose the string of length 2 meter fixed at its both

Having calculated the values of 1(1)n i ; u 1- i, = from

any well known method. Like explicit scheme, once the

value of u are known at first level of time, the process can

be repeated for second time level and so on. The results

obtained by implicit method are given in the table (3.13.2)

3.13 (C) DISCUSSION OF RESULTS :

The result presented in table (3.13.1), (3.13.2) is

obtained by explicit and implicit methods are compared with

the exact solutions at t = 0.15 in the table (3.13.3).

Figure (3.13.3(a)) indicates the error analysis, which

compares the exact solutions with spline solutions, obtained

by both the methods, Explicit as well as Implicit, at

t = 0.15. From the table (3.13.3) and figure (3.13.3(a)), it is

clear that solutions obtained by both the methods are fairly

good and correct up to three decimal places. Figure

(3.13.3(b)) shows the single curve which gives accuracy of

spline solutions. Also implicit method gives better results

than the explicit one.

3.14 SPLINE FORMULA TO SOLVE HYPERBOLIC

PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATION WITH TWO

SPACE VARIABLES :

The general form of hyperbolic PDE with two space

variables is as follows:

with Dirichilet boundary conditions namely,

a y 0 ; 0 t)y, u(0, ≤≤=

b x 0 ; 0 t)0, u(x, ≤≤= …(3.14.2)

and initial conditions at t = 0 (Cauchy conditions)

u(x, y, 0) = f(x, y)

y) g(x, 0) y, (x, t u / ==∂∂ …(3.14.3)

In equation (3.14.1), 2c is a constant term, it depends

upon some physical quantities in case of different types of

problems.

Divide the region a x 0 ≤≤ into say n sub – intervals

each of width x∆ such that a x n =∆ , b y 0 ≤≤ into m sub –

intervals each of width y∆ such that b x n =∆ .

The subscript k denotes the time and (i, j) denote the

position. For simplicity consider square region i.e. a = b = L

the length of the region, m = n and (say)h y x =∆=∆ . The

points of subdivisions are (1)n 0 j i, , )y ,(x ji = .

For explicit scheme, the formula is obtained in similar

manner as discussed in section (3.9), by replacing the right

side by twice the second derivative of cubic spline S(x) at at

the thj) (i, mesh point i.e. )(xS 2 j i,′′ Let j i,u , we get

following relation

The equation (3.14.4) is known as cubic spline explicit

formula to solve hyperbolic type PDE of the form given by

the equation (3.14.1). The values obtained from equation

(3.14.5) using initial and boundary conditions, the equation

(3.14.4) gives system of (n-1) x (n-1) simultaneous

equations in (n-1) x (n-1) unknowns. After calculating the

results for k = 0; the results for k = 1, 2, ….. are obtained

in similar manner. 21

r ≤ is the required condition for

convergence and stability of this explicit method.

Likewise implicit scheme for obtaining solution of

parabolic PDE with one space variable, we have implicit

scheme to solve hyperbolic differential equation with two

space variables. This implicit scheme is unconditionally

stable. As similar technique discussed in section (3.9) the

cubic spline implicit formula to solve equation (3.14.1) is as

follows, by replacing the right side of equation (3.14.1) i.e.

space derivatives by )S S( 1j i,1-j i, +′′+′′

Due to similar discussion as above also equation

(n – 1) x (n – 1) unknowns. After calculating results for

th1) (k + time level, the results for th2) (k + time level are

obtained in similar manner by repeating the process.

3.15 THE PROBLEM OF VIBRATING MEMBRANE :

The problem of vibrating membrane is well-known to

researchers. Assume that membrane is tightly stretched and

homogeneous i.e. its mass per unit area is constant, it is

perfectly flexible and is so thin that it offers no resistance

for bending. The membrane is stretched and then fixed

along its entire boundary in the xy - plane and the tension T

caused by stretching the membrane is the same at every

point in all directions and does not change during the

motion. The deflection u(x, y, t) of the membrane during the

motion is small compared to the size of the membrane.

Consider the forces acting on a small portion of the

membrane as shown in figure (3.15.1). Since the deflection

of the membrane and the angles of inclination are small the

Page 72: CHAPTER – 1 - shodhganga.inflibnet.ac.inshodhganga.inflibnet.ac.in/bitstream/10603/3460/11/11_chapter 3.pdf · 3.1 Spline Formula To Solve Parabolic ... 3.8 Spline Solutions With

The tension T is the force per unit length. Forces

acting on the edges are xT∆ and yT∆ which could be taken

tangent to the membrane since the membrane is perfectly

elastic. Let the force yT∆ make angles βα and with the

horizontal on the opposite edges of the membrane since the

membrane is perfectly elastic.

The resultant vertical component of force due to yT∆ is

The above equation (3.15.1) is hyperbolic PDE in two

the case of a rectangular membrane is given below by cubic

(3.15.1) is obtained through explicit formula given by the

equation (3.14.4) as follows.

Let the region 1 y 0 and 1 x 0 ≤≤≤≤ be divided into 10

sub-intervals, each of length h = 0.1. Let c = 0.1 and

0.01 t =∆ , these gives r = 0.01. After calculating the values

of 1(1)n j i, ,u 1-j i, = form equation (3.14.5), using initial

condition, substitute the values of 1-j i,u , 212r 2 + and 224r - 8

Since 1 1, 6,1 1, 4, u u = (Due to symmetry of the

problem)

1.823844 4u 2u 1 1, 5,1 1, 4, =+

In similar manner calculate the equation j = 1(1)9 one

gets 9 x 9 simultaneous linear equations in 9 x 9

unknowns. This system of equations can be solved by any

well-known method. Once the values of u are known at the

first level of time, the process can be repeated for second

time level and so on. The results obtained by explicit

method are given as follows. Due to the symmetry of the

problem, results are given for 0.5 x 0 0.5, y 0 ≤≤≤≤ in the table

(3.16.1(a)) and (3.16.1b). The results obtained at y = 0.1 are

plotted in the figures (3.16.1).

3.16(B) SPLINE SOLUTIONS WITH IMPLICIT METHOD :

In similar manner discussed as earlier, using initial

and boundary condition, at 0.01 t =∆ , r = 0.01, the solution

of equation (3.14.1) is obtained by using cubic spline

implicit formula given by equation (3.14.6) as follows.

Like explicit scheme discussed in section 3.17(A), one

gets system of 9 x 9 simultaneous linear equations in 9 x 9

unknowns. Once the values of u are obtained at the first

time level, the values for second time level are obtained in

similar manner by repeating the process. Results obtained

by cubic spline implicit method are given at different times

in the tables (3.16.2(a)) and (3.16.2(b)). The results are

plotted in the figures (3.17.2) at y = 0.1.

3.16 (C) DISCUSSIONS OF RESULTS :

The velocity distribution obtained by the solution of

equation (3.14.1) by cubic spline explicit as well as implicit

methods are compared with exact solutions at y = 0.1 for

t = 0.03 in the table (3.16.3). From the table it is clear that

the solutions obtained by both these methods are accurate

up to five digits of decimal places. Figure (3.16.3(a))

indicates the error analysis which compares the exact

solutions with spline solutions obtained by both the

methods explicit as well as implicit at t = 0.03 clearly from

the figure (3.16.3(b)), the spline solutions are quite accurate

and reliable.

3.17 CONCLUSION :

In this chapter the method of spline collocation is

applied to linear PDE of parabolic and hyperbolic type with

one and two space variable. The problem describing flow of

electricity in a cable of transmission line, heat conduction

in a rod ,heat flow in thin rectangular plate, vibrating string,

vibrating membrane are discussed briefly. The governing

equations are parabolic PDE in one and two space variables

as well as hyperbolic PDE in one and two space variables.

All the equations are solved by spline explicit and spline

implicit scheme. The results are given in tabular form.

Comparison of the results shows that spline solutions are

quite reliable. The figure provides a pictorial evidence of a

good agreement of the curves presenting actual as well as

approximate solutions. Results are accurate up to five digits

of decimal place in most of the case.

In all problems, reducing the length of sub-interval

gives more closed results. An ultimate conclusion is drawn

from this work is that, both the method of spline collocation

gives accurate results with compact computations. From the

comparison of results and figure it is conclude that, implicit

scheme provide better convergence than explicit scheme.
