Motivating Example
Some things to note: The string– Is at rest when it is a solution to Laplace’s equation– Acceleration is towards the solution of Laplace’s equation

Motivating Example
In addition, if we reduce the length of a string, the vibrations increase:– Halve the length of a string, double the frequency– If a string of a certain length is middle C, a string of half the
length is one octave higher

Motivating Example
Waves are not restricted to strings:– The vibrations on the face of a drum– The ripples on the surface of a pond– The movement of light (microwaves, radio waves, etc.)

The Wave Equation
The equation that describes the propagation of waves under somewhat ideal circumstances is given by the partial differential equation
where u(x, t) is a real-valued function of space and time and c is the propagation speed of the wave
Sound in air at 20 oC c ≈ 343 m/s = 1234.8 km/h ≈ 1 km/3 s
Light c = 299 792 458 m/s

The Laplacian Operator
Notice if that u(x, t) already satisfies Laplace’s equation,
then
or
That is, if a solution already satisfies Laplace’s equation, it will not be accelerating– In one dimension, if the string is already tight (a straight line), it
will not begin vibrating– If it’s not moving, either, it will remain fixed

ui,2 = ui,1 + Dt Dui,1
– This is simply an application of Euler’s method

Insulated Boundaries
As this is a forward solving algorithm, if we have insulated boundaries, it is straight forward– Insulated boundaries reflect waves
We will solve for the values at times k = 1, …, nt – 1
– We will first solve for the values u2, k through un – 1, k ,
– If u1, k is marked as insulated (NaN), we will replace it with u2, k

If we start with a straight line and create a pulse (likewith slinkies), we get the following wave[x4b, t4b, U4b] = wave1d( 1, [0, 10], 50, [0, 45], 350, @u4b_init, @du4b_init,

Crank-Nicolson and Implicit Methods?
What about using the ideas from the Crank-Nicolson approach– Without justification, I tried to incorporate the method– The method, however, did not decrease the error—it significantly
increased it
