Dsolve: assigning constants of integration and subscripts

[KleZMeR]

I have an equation I am solving with Mathematica:

In:

DSolve[y''[t] +
Subscript[\[Omega], c]^2 y[
t] == -Subscript[\[Omega], c]^2 Subscript[v, d]*t +
Subscript[\[Omega], c]*Subscript[v, 0], y[t], t]

Out:

{{y[t] ->
C[2] Cos[t Subscript[\[Omega], c]] +
C[1] Sin[t Subscript[\[Omega], c]] + (
Subscript[v, 0] - t Subscript[v, d] Subscript[\[Omega], c])/
Subscript[\[Omega], c]}}



I would like to replace the two constants of integration(C[1], C[2]) with two chosen variables

If I include this with the DSolve command:

{C[1] -> (Voy/omega), C[2] -> ((Voy-Vd)/omega)},

it returns that I can not use these for variables.

I have also found a GeneratedParameters-> function, but it does not work either,.. and if I'm correct, the GeneratedParameters-> Module{C[1], C[2]..&} function is only to ensure that C[] values are all unique, and does not change their representation.


I am also wondering how to change the subscript of Vo into Voy, Mathematica is not letting me do this.

Again, any help would be appreciated
Thanks

You can replace the parameters all the way at the end:

DSolve[ ..., y[t], t] /. {C[1] -> ..., C[2] -> ...}

and that works well for me.

When you type V0y Mathematica sees the subscript as an expression, and replaces 0*y by 0 (which is usually very handy, but not what you want now). You can use o (letter oh) instead of 0 (number zero) in the subscript, or put it in a string: V"y,0".

Or you can use

GeneratedParameters -> ((Voy - (# - 1) Vd)/omega &)

And of course the neatest solution is to just get them from the equation by plugging in the right boundary conditions:

DSolve[{equation, y'[0] == v0y, y[0] = 0}, y[t], t]

or something like that.
