Representing Partial Differential Equation
Partial Differential Equations are represented using subscript and ∂ or ∇ symbol. suppose we have a function f then Partial Differential Equations are given as:
- fx = ∂f/∂x
- fxx = ∂2f/∂x2
- fxy = ∂2f/∂x∂y = ∂/∂y(∂f/∂x)
We use, ∂ and ∇ symbols to represent the Partial Differential Equations.
Partial Differential Equation
Partial Differential Equation contains an unknown function of two or more variables and its partial derivatives with respect to these variables. The order of partial differential equations is that of the highest-order derivatives. Such equations aid in the relationship of a function with several variables to their partial derivatives. They are extremely important in analyzing natural phenomena such as sound, temperature, flow properties, and waves.
They are used to express issues that include an unknown function with numerous dependent and independent variables, as well as the second derivative of this function with respect to the independent variables.
In this article, we will learn the definition of Partial Differential Equations, their representation, their order, the types of partial differential equations, how to solve PDE, and many more details.
