- ##(\partial_t^2-\partial_z^2) h(t,z)=A \cos (k(t-z))##

- None
If the right-hand side is zero, then it will be a wave equation, which can be easily solved. The right-hand side term looks like a forced-oscillation term. However, I only know how to solve a forced oscillation system in one dimension. I do not know how to tackle it in two dimensions.
I have tried to generalize it into two dimensions by solving it pretending ##h## depends only on ##t## and ##z## separately, but I have no clues on how to carry on.
I have tried it in Mathematica. It gives no results.
Thanks ahead.
