1D Wave Equation[edit | edit source]
Derivation of the wave equation using string model.
General form for boundary conditions.[edit | edit source]
Wave equation with Dirichlet Homogeneous Boundary conditions.[edit | edit source]
In the homogeneous problem
with ,
Finding a solution: u(x,t)[edit | edit source]
Let
then substitute this into the PDE.
Where is a constant that can be positive, zero or negative. We need to check each case for a solution.
