Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Solve the following heat equation using FDM: βˆ‚u/βˆ‚t = Ξ±βˆ‚Β²u/βˆ‚xΒ² with u(0,t)=0, u(L,t)=0, and initial condition u(x,0)=f(x). Outline your approach carefully.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how the boundary conditions affect your grid.

Question 2

Using FEM, reformulate the Poisson equation -dΒ²u/dxΒ² = f(x) into its weak form, and describe the steps to set up the global system of equations.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Remember integration by parts reduces derivatives in the equation.
