Forcing Function

What is the solution to Y’’(x) + 2y’(x) + 5y(x) = f(x) Where f(x) is a given forcing function, and y and f both decay to 0 as x ---> + or - INF Note: should read “as x approaches plus or minus infinity”

Application of Fourier Transfors to Diffusion

Using Fourier Transforms, solve the one-dimensional equation for a point source located at x=xo, i.e., at time zero, c(x,0) = (delta)(x-xo).

Laplace/Fourier Transforms

Please see the attached file for the fully formatted problems. The problem is number 8 on page 989 of the 2nd Edition of Greenberg's Advanced Engineering Mathematics book, PART C ONLY. This is in section 18.4 (Chapter 18 is the Diffusion Equation), in the exercises at the end of the section. PLEASE NOTE: I have scanned th ...continues

Note to YINON

Yinon, If you do not wish to work on the Laplace diffusion problem anymore, I would like to see the solution you have formulated thus far and will pay you some credits even though it is not entirely correct. Please leave me a note. Thank you!
