    Solve Differential Equation: Is My Work Correct?

    Well actually my question is because I am trying to solve the homogeneous part of a 2nd order inhomogeneous differential equation with variable coefficient. Could you give some hints on the Fourier expansion, or any good reference to that? My main goal is to solve the differential equation...

    Integral of e^(-n/ω cos ωt) dt and Bessel functions

    well it starts with a differential equation, I am using the method from a calculus book written by Adams. My idea was to calculate that "unsolvable" integral part with matlab. Thanks for the tips, Out of curiosity, how did you get a solution as a series function?

    Integral of e^(-n/ω cos ωt) dt and Bessel functions

    this is the original equation: e^{-a cos wt} \ T(t) = m \int e^{-a cos wt} dt + p \int sin wt \ e^{-a cos wt} I want to have solution for T(t) e^{-a cos wt} \ T(t) = m \int e^{-a cos wt} dt + p e^{-a cos wt} The initial condition is: T(t=0) = T_0

    Integral of e^(-n/ω cos ωt) dt and Bessel functions

    I really do not know how did you get that.. Actually, I got this integral when I try to solve a 1st order inhomogeneous non-linear differential equation with variable coefficients.. So.. I am stuck with that integration. Suppose that your solution is correct, I really do not know how to...

    Integral of e^(-n/ω cos ωt) dt and Bessel functions

    Homework Statement I need to integrate the following function: y = \int e^{-\frac{n}{\omega}cos \omega t} dt Homework Equations How should I solve this? Will this lead me to Bessel function? 2. My attempt a=\frac{n}{\omega} u=-a cos (\omega t) du = a\omega sin...

    Heat conduction in rectangular domain with periodic heat transfer coefficient

    Dear all, I have difficulty in solving this problem (see the figure in attached thumbnails) I have a rectangular shape with length/height of L and the thickness/width of \delta Within the rectangular area, a heat conduction occurred. I would like to determine the temperature profile within the...
