Overview
Follow-up Computer problems Maple TA problems Maple TA changes New web pages
Chapter 19 Separation of variables Exercises today
Follow-up:Computer problems
Client-server problems Over-loaded servers Over-loaded network??
Browser problems Mozilla / Maple / JAVA Netscape plugin missing
Don’t panic! “… it said in warm, red letters …”
Follow-up:Computer problems
Some problems will be fixed Browser: Netscape with plugin
Some hardware constraints need work-arounds Network limitations??
Possibly use D315 & A122 CPU limitations
Make sure logins and windows are on localhost
Follow-up:Maple TA
Maple TA improvements No longer accepts “0” or “whatever” as solutions
Remaining limitations Still accepts less than general PDE solutions
Use human judgment! I will !
Follow-up:Maple TA

19. Partial Differential Equations:Separation of variables …
Main principles Why?
Techniques How?
Main principles
Why? Because many systems in physics are separable In particular systems with symmetries Such as spherically symmetric problems
Example: Spherical harmonics
u(r,Θ,φ,t) = Ylmn(r,Θ,φ) eiωt
Example: Spherical harmonics
u(r,Θ,φ,t) = Ylmn(r,Θ,φ) eiωt

Separation of variables in the wave equation
For the ansatz to work we must have (lets set c=1 for now to get rid of a triviality!)
Divide though with XYZT, for:
X”YZT + XY”ZT + XYZ”T = XYZT”X”YZT + XY”ZT + XYZ”T = XYZT”
X”/X + Y”/Y + Z”/Z = T”/TX”/X + Y”/Y + Z”/Z = T”/T
This can only work if all of these are constants!This can only work if all of these are constants!
Separation of variables in the wave equation
