Course contents

Introduction to partial differential equations. Differential equations which are important in applications are classified and solved. Elliptic, parabolic and hyperbolic differential equations are treated. The following mathematical tools are introduced: Laplace transform, Fourier series, Fourier transform, separation of variables.

Detailed program

Laplace transform
Laplace transform, inverse Laplace transform, linearity, s-shifting. Transforms of derivatives and integrals, application to ODEs. Unit step function, t-shifting. Short impulses, Dirac's delta function, partial fractions. Convolution, integral equations. Differentiation and integration of transforms.

Fourier series, integrals and transforms
Fourier series. Functions of any period p=2L. Even and odd functions, half-range expansions. Forced oscillations. Approximation by trigonometric polynomials. Fourier integral. Fourier transform.

Partial Differential Equations
Basic concepts. Modeling: vibrating string, wave equation. Solution by separation of variables; use of Fourier series. D'Alembert solution of wave equation, characteristics. Heat equation: solution by Fourier series. Heat Equation: solutions by Fourier integrals and transforms. Modeling membrane: two-dimensional wave equation. Laplacian in polar coordinates: circular membrane, Fourier-Bessel series. Solution of PDEs by Laplace transform.

Lecture Summaries

The detailed program of each lecture and the notes from the lectures are published weekly on the webpage ~fdalio/ANALYSISIIIDMAVTDMATLHS19 under "Class content".

Written session examination, 120 minutes, English.

Allowed aids:
20 pages (=10 sheets) DIN A4 summary. The students are encouraged to write their personal summary. However, non personal summaries provided by the Amiv or other students are allowed as well. English <-> German dictionary.

NOT allowed:
Electronic devices (such as, but not limited to, smartphones, calculators, tablets, laptops, etc.) are NOT allowed to use during the exam.
In order to make sure, that everyone has the same information about the exam only what is written about the exam here or in the VVZ is legally binding for the exam.

In the exam, we will not ask about the transformation of a PDE in a canonical form but the classification (linear, homogeneous, degree, elliptic, parabolic, hyperbolic) of a PDE may be asked. Furthermore, we will ask explicitly if one has to describe the steps of the method of separation of variables or take a formula for given.

The Amiv (https://legacy.amiv.ethz.ch/studium/unterlagen/20) provides a large collection of exams from previous semesters. More recent exams can be downloaded here (https://polybox.ethz.ch/index.php/s/blX7S0zOQTyXOdf), and the most recents (HS 18) are available on the webpage of last year (http://metaphor.ethz.ch/x/2018/hs/401-0363-10L/)

Winter 2020 - Exam and solutions

Exam Winter 2020 Solutions Winter 2020
Exam Summer 2020 Solutions Summer 2020

The exercise classes take place every week, starting from the first week of lectures (23-27 September). The problems are on the topics treated in the lecture held on Thursday.
However, the exercise sheets will be published already at the beginning of the week, so that you can start having a look at them.
We expect you to do that, in order to be able to ask your questions in the exercise classes.

After the exercise class you have one week to hand in your solutions, either in your assistant's box (next to the office HG F 27.3), or directly to your assistant in the following exercise class.
Your solutions will then be corrected and handed in back to you in the second exercise class to come (or left in the box if you're not there in the class).
Written solutions will be published in the day you hand in your exercises. We encourage you to actively participate in the classes.

Bonus exercises: some exercises are denoted by "Bonus exercise". They are not necessary in preparation for the exam.

Feedback
It's important that you give us feedback on the exercise classes through your teaching assistant.

Please enroll in an exercise class as soon as you can via myStudies and spread as evenly as possible. Only the tutor you are enrolled with is obliged to correct your exercises.
