| Title: |
The Wave Equation
|
|
Abstract
|
The wave equations are the very well
known equations in Mathematics which is also known as hyperbolic
differential equation. In this presentation I will discuss the
occurrence of the wave equation with a special attention to acoustics
applied to linearized supersonic flow. Afterwards I will discuss one
dimensional wave equation, spherical wave equation and cylindrical wave
equation with special interest on spherical wave equation to solve
balloon problem. I will also discuss supersonic flow past a body
of revolution as well. Finally I will discuss the initial value problem
of wave equations in two and three dimensions.
