Find the bounded solution for the following PDE using Laplace transform.

@mukushla

OpenStudy (anonymous):

taking laplace wrt t ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

after applying laplace we have \[sU-u(x,0)=U_{xx}\]\[sU-0=U_{xx}\]\[U_{xx}-sU=0\]solve this for \(U\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i did this and got \[\Large U(x,s)=c_{1}(s)e^{\sqrt{s}x}+c_{2}(s)e^{-\sqrt{s}x}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how to proceed then .

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry i was out

OpenStudy (anonymous):

solution is bounded so \(c_1=0\) i'll be back in 5 min

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh what did i say ... thats wrong... till here we have\[ U(x,s)=c_{1}e^{\sqrt{s}x}+c_{2}e^{-\sqrt{s}x}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think you are right c1(s) should be zero.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lets find an acceptable reasoning for this we know that\[\lim_{t \rightarrow 0} u(x,t)=\lim_{s \rightarrow \infty} sU(x,s)=0\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so yes...\(c_1=0\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so\[U(x,s)=ce^{-x\sqrt{s}}\]from laplace table\[u(x,t)=c\frac{x}{2\sqrt{\pi t^3}}e^{-\frac{x^2}{t}}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but i think this is not right !!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i am thinking the same :P
