Differential Equations
These equations, containing a derivative, involve rates of change – so often appear in anengineering or scientific context. Solving the equation involves integration.
The order of a differential equation is given by the highest derivative used.
The degree of a differential equation is given by the degree of the power of the highestderivative used.

Linear Differential Equations
These are first degree differential equations.
describes a general linear differential equation of order n, where an(x), an-1(x),etc and f(x) are given functions of x or constants.
Louis Arbogast introduced the differential operator D = d/dx , which simplifies the general equation to
or
If f(x) = 0 , the equation is called homogeneous. If f(x) ≠0 , the equation is non-homogeneous

First order Linear Differential Equations
To solve equations of the form
1) Express in standard form
where P and Q are functions of x or constants
2) Multiply both sides by the Integrating Factor
3) Write
4) Integrate the right hand side,
use integration by parts if necessary

5) Divide both sides by the integrating factor.This gives the General solution.
6) Use any initial conditions to find particular solutions.

2) Examine the discriminant of the auxiliary equation.
3) For real and distinct roots, m1 and m2,

Second order non – homogeneous Differential Equations
The solution to equations of the form
4/23/2016 Differential Equations
http://www.mathsmutt.co.uk/files/diffeq.htm 28/36
has two parts, the complementary function (CF) and the particular integral (PI).
so Q(x) = CF +PI
The CF is the general solution as described above for solving homogeneous equations .
The Particular Integral is found by substituting a form similar to Q(x) into the left hand side equation, and equating co-efficients.
If Q(x) is a linear function, try y = Cx +DIf Q(x) is quadratic, try Cx2 +Dx +EIf Q(x) is wave function, try CSinx +DcosxIf Q(x) is a constant, try y = CIf Q(x) is ekx, try y = Cekx
The PI cannot have the same form as any of the terms in the CF, so care has to be taken to ensure that this is not the case.
In such a situation, an extra x term is usually introduced to the PI.
