Anyone know how to solve it?
Either step by step or using MatLab/Mathematica/Maple is ok.
\frac{a+bsinwt-c\sqrt{H}}{k}=\frac{dH}{dt}

I need it in modelling an engineering problem, but I simply don't have any idea to solve it...
 
Physics news on Phys.org
the solution is approaching ulgy

Maple and I can only solve it if b=0.

It is easy for a=b=0, e.g. the homogeneous case, namely

k\frac{dH}{dt}+c\sqrt{H(t)}=0

has the solution

H(t)=(C-\frac{ct}{2k})^2.

If a\neq 0, then the solution is approaching ulgy, see for yourself: Implicitly it is given by

c^2t+ka\ln(-a^2+c^2H(t))+2ck\sqrt{H(t)}-ka\ln(a+c\sqrt{H(t)})+ka\ln(c\sqrt{H(t)}-a)+C = 0

have a nice day

thanks
but b cannot be zero.
anyone have more?
 
I think that a solution is as follows:

H = ( a/c + (H0^2-a/c)exp(-c/2k t) + b c sin(wt)/(c^2+4*k^2*w^2) - 2 k b w cos(wt)/(c^2+4*k^2*w^2) )^2

Prove $$\int\limits_0^{\sqrt2/4}\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-x^2}}\arcsin\sqrt{\frac{(x-1)\left(x-1+x\sqrt{9-16x}\right)}{1-2x}} \, \mathrm dx = \frac{\pi^2}{8}.$$ Let $$I = \int\limits_0^{\sqrt 2 / 4}\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-x^2}}\arcsin\sqrt{\frac{(x-1)\left(x-1+x\sqrt{9-16x}\right)}{1-2x}} \, \mathrm dx. \tag{1}$$ The representation integral of ##\arcsin## is $$\arcsin u = \int\limits_{0}^{1} \frac{\mathrm dt}{\sqrt{1-t^2}}, \qquad 0 \leqslant u \leqslant 1.$$ Plugging identity above into ##(1)## with ##u...
