1. Derive the heat equation for a rod assuming the thermal conductivity K0 (x) is a non-constant function
of x, 0 < x < L. Assume all other thermal properties are constant, and that the cross-sectional area
is also constant. There is no heat source.
Solution: The differential form of conservation of energy gives:
c(x)ρ(x)
∂φ
∂u

∂t
∂x
where there is no heat source, and c(x) = c, ρ(x) = ρ are constants. By Fourier’s law, φ(x) =

2. Consider the heat equation with source ∂u
∂t = 5 ∂x2 + 3x in a rod 0 < x < π. Assume cρ = 1, K0 = 5,
and the cross-section area A = 1. The initial condition is u(x, 0) = sin 3x, and the boundary condition
∂u

is ∂u
∂x (0, t) = b, ∂x (π, t) = e . Denote the total heat energy in the rod by J(t).
(a) What is the function

(Hint: you do not have to solve for u(x, t) first.)
(b) Using part (a), what is J(t)?
(c) For which value of b does the limit limt→+∞ J(t) exist, and what is this limit?

∂x (0, y) = 0, ∂x (3, y) = 0, u(x, 0) = 1 + cos 3πx, u(x, 5) = 0.

Correspondingly, Yn (y) = sinh nπ(5−y)

∂y
(By e here we mean Euler’s constant 2.7818 . . .) Give a formula for the solution of this PDE which
satisfies u = 1 on the side x = e and u = 0 on all remaining sides.
Solution: We use separation of variables: u = f (x)g(y). The equations we get are g 00 (y) = −λg(y)
and x2 f 00 (x) = λf (x). The solutions we get for g(y) are sin nπy for n = 1, 2, . . . , with corresponding
λn = n2 π 2 . The equation for f is a Cauchy-Euler equation, the general solution of √
which will be
Axa + Bxb when a and b are the two distinct roots of z(z − 1) = n2 π 2 , i.e., z = 21 (1 ± 1 + 4n2 π 2 ).
We should impose the condition that f (x) = 0 when x = 1, which gives us the series solution

(a) Sketch a graph of the Fourier sine series, the Fourier cosine series, and the complete Fourier series

the interval −3 ≤ x ≤ 3. Be sure to mark any points of discontinuity.
(b) Compute the Fourier sine series, the Fourier cosine series, and the complete Fourier series of f .

6. Consider the function f (x) = x2 (1 − x)2 on the interval [0, 1]. How many times is term-by-term
differentiation valid for the Fourier sine series of f (x) on [−1, 1]? How about the Fourier cosine series?
Justify your answer.
Solution: First, compute f and its derivatives:
=
x2 (1 − x)2 = x4 − 2x3 + x2
f (x)
=
4x3 − 6x2 + 2x
f 00 (x)
=
12x2 − 12x + 2
f 000 (x)
=
24x − 12
f (x)
0
f and its derivatives are all smooth, so the only concern in differentiating the series is when we
differentiate a sine series: here, we must check that the function is 0 at x = 0 and x = 1.
For the Fourier sine series, since f (0) = f (1) = 0, we can differentiate once. Then, we can
differentiate again because it is a cosine series. To differentiate again, we would need f 00 (0) =
f 00 (1) = 0, but f 00 (0) = 2, so we can only differentiate the sine series term-by-term twice.
For the Fourier cosine series, we can differentiate once to get a sine series. Since f 0 (0) = f 0 (1) = 0,
we can differentiate the sine series to get a cosine series. Then, we can differentiate again because it
is a cosine series. However, since f 000 (0) 6= 0, we cannot differentiate again. So, we can differentiate
the cosine series term-by-term three times.

(By e here we mean Euler’s constant 2.7818 . . .) Give a formula for the solution of this PDE which
1
satisfies u = x 2 sin(2π ln x) on the side y = 0 and u = 0 on all remaining sides.
Solution: Because the boundary data depends on x, in this problem we should separate variables
and solve the following Sturm-Liouville problem in x:
x2 f 00 (x) = −λf (x).
This is a regular Sturm-Liouville problem, so we know it suffices to take λ real. This is
√ a CauchyEuler equation; the indicial equation is p(p − 1) = −λ, which has solutions p = (1 ± 1 − 4λ)/2.
Assuming that λ > 14 , we conclude that the function f will have the form
1
Ax 2 +i

We can find a function of this form which vanishes at both ends of the interval [1, e] when A+B = 0

This can occur when 2πn = 2 λ − 14 , or λ = 14 + n2 π 2 . Comparing to our initial data, we need
only consider the case n = 2, in which case we have
1
f (x) = x 2 sin(2π ln x)
as an eigenfunction of our Sturm-Liouville problem with λ = 4π 2 + 14 . If u = f (x)g(y), then
g 00 (y) = λg(y) with g(e) = 0, g(0) = 1. We can solve this in our case by
g(y) =
Our final answer:
sinh(4π 2 + 41 )(e − y)
.

u(x, y) =

0 < x < 1,
t>0
5πx
, ux (0, t) = 0, u(1, t) = 1.
2
(Hint: What is the equilibrium solution?)
Solution: The equilibrium solution ueq (x) satisfies u00eq = 0 so ueq is linear, as well as u0eq (0) = 0
(so ueq is constant) and ueq (1) = 1. So ueq (x) = 1 for all x.
Therefore, let
u(x, t) = 1 + v(x, t)
and then v will satisfy
vt = 4vxx ,
v(x, 0) = 3 cos

The x-eigenvalue problem is

so the eigenfunctions are
X(t) = cos
(2n + 1)πx

and the corresponding eigenvalues are λ = (2n + 1)2 π 2 /4 for n = 0, 1, 2, . . .. So

10. Use the Fourier transform (in x) to solve the initial-value problem for the first-order equation
ut = 3ux
u(x, 0) = f (x).
Solution: Take the Fourier transform of the equation and the data to get
F [u]t = −3iωF [u]
F [u] (ω, 0) = F [f ] (ω).
The solution of this ordinary differential equation for F [u] as a function of t is
F [u] (ω, t) = F [f ] (ω)e−3iωt .
Now take the inverse Fourier transform of both sides and use the shifting formula F −1 [f (x − a)] =
eiaω F [f ] (ω) to get
u(x, t) = F −1 e−3itω F [f ] (ω) = f (x + 3t).

Ca (x) dx = 1).

Ca (x) is called a Cauchy distribution.
(Hint: You can use the Fourier transform to do this because e0 = 1)
(b) The probability density function (pdf) of the sum of two random variables is the convolution of
the pdfs of the two random variables. If A is a random variable with pdf Ca (x) and B is a random
variable with pdf Cb (x) for a > 0 and b > 0, calculate the pdf of the random variable A + B. (Again,
using the Fourier transform will help avoid doing unpleasant integrals.)
