The document outlines the process of finding the deflection U(x, t) of a vibrating string with fixed ends and given initial conditions using separation of variables and Fourier series. It details the derivation of two ordinary differential equations from the wave equation and discusses boundary and initial conditions that lead to harmonic motion solutions. The final solution is expressed as a Fourier sine series representing the string's deflection over time.

Application&Week 8 Step 2 (Satisfying boundary conditions)

Find the deflection U ( x, t ) of the vibrating U (0, t ) = U ( L, t ) = 0


string with length L = π and ends fixed U (0, t ) = F (0).G (t ) = 0

Boundary conditions : U (0, t ) = U ( L, t ) = 0 → A=0

Initial conditions :
U ( x, 0) = f ( x) → Initial deflection
for k > 0 (k = µ 2 ) :
U t ( x, 0) = g ( x) → Initial velocity
r2 − µ2 = 0
r1 = µ , r2 = − µ
F = Ae µ x + Be − µ x
F (0) = 0 → 0 = A + B → A = − B
F ( L) = 0 → 0 = Ae µ L + Be− µ L
→ 0 = − Be µ L + Be − µ L
→ 0 = B ( e− µ L − e µ L )
