WavePDEComponent

WavePDEComponent[vars,pars]

yields a wave equation PDE term with model variables vars and model parameters pars.

Details

  • WavePDEComponent returns a sum of differential operators to be used as a part of partial differential equations
  • WavePDEComponent can be used to model wave equations with dependent variable , independent variables and time variable .
  • Time-dependent model variables vars are vars={u[t,x1,…,xn],t,{x1,…,xn}}.
  • The WavePDEComponent is based on a diffusion term:

    • (partialu^2)/(partialt^2)- del .(c^2 del u(x))^(︷^( diffusion term ))

  • The wave PDE term is realized as a DiffusionPDETerm with as a diffusion coefficient, for a constant resulting in .
  • The following model parameters pars can be given:
  • parameterdefaultsymbol
    "WaveCoefficient"1
    "RegionSymmetry"None
  • The source term coefficient is a scalar.
  • The source term coefficient cannot depend on space.
  • A possible choice for the parameter "RegionSymmetry" is "Axisymmetric".
  • "Axisymmetric" region symmetry represents a truncated cylindrical coordinate system where the cylindrical coordinates are reduced by removing the angle variable as follows:
  • dimensionreductionequation
    1D
    2D
  • If the WavePDEComponent depends on parameters that are specified in the association pars as …,keypi…,pivi,…, the parameters are replaced with .
