Hand solution

Assuming \(u=X\left ( x\right ) Y\left ( y\right ) T\left ( t\right ) \) and substituting into the PDE gives\begin {align*} \frac {1}{c^{2}}T^{\prime \prime }XY & =X^{\prime \prime }YT+Y^{\prime \prime }XT\\ \frac {1}{c^{2}}\frac {T^{\prime \prime }}{T} & =\frac {X^{\prime \prime }}{X}+\frac {Y^{\prime \prime }}{Y} \end {align*}

Therefore\begin {align*} \frac {1}{c^{2}}\frac {T^{\prime \prime }}{T} & =-\lambda \\ \frac {X^{\prime \prime }}{X}+\frac {Y^{\prime \prime }}{Y} & =-\lambda \end {align*}

The time ODE becomes\[ T^{\prime \prime }+c^{2}\lambda T=0 \] And the space ODE is\[ \frac {X^{\prime \prime }}{X}+\frac {Y^{\prime \prime }}{Y}=-\lambda \] Separating this again gives\[ \frac {X^{\prime \prime }}{X}=-\lambda -\frac {Y^{\prime \prime }}{Y}\] Let the second separation variable be \(\mu \). This gives two new ODE’s to solve\begin {align*} \frac {X^{\prime \prime }}{X} & =-\mu \\ -\lambda -\frac {Y^{\prime \prime }}{Y} & =-\mu \end {align*}

Or\begin {align*} X^{\prime \prime }+\mu X & =0\\ Y^{\prime \prime }+Y\left ( \lambda -\mu \right ) & =0 \end {align*}

Solving for \(X\left ( x\right ) \) ODE first, and knowing that only \(\mu >0\) will give non trivial solutions (from the nature of the boundary conditions), gives the solution as\[ X\left ( x\right ) =A\cos \left ( \sqrt {\mu }x\right ) +B\sin \left ( \sqrt {\mu }x\right ) \] Applying B.C. at \(x=0\) results in\[ 0=A \] Therefore \(X\left ( x\right ) =B\sin \left ( \sqrt {\mu }x\right ) \). Applying the B.C. at \(x=L\) gives\[ 0=B\sin \left ( \sqrt {\mu }L\right ) \] For non trivial solution\begin {align*} \sqrt {\mu }L & =n\pi \\ \mu & =\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}\qquad n=1,2,3,\cdots \end {align*}

Therefore the \(X_{n}\left ( x\right ) \) eigenfunctions are\[ X_{n}\left ( x\right ) =B_{n}\sin \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}x\right ) \qquad n=1,2,3,\cdots \] Now, solving the \(Y\left ( y\right ) \) ODE above\[ Y^{\prime \prime }+Y\left ( \lambda -\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}\right ) =0 \] The solution is\[ Y_{n}\left ( y\right ) =A\cos \left ( \sqrt {\lambda -\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}}y\right ) +B\sin \left ( \sqrt {\lambda -\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}}y\right ) \] Applying first B.C. gives \[ 0=A \] Hence\[ Y_{n}\left ( y\right ) =B\sin \left ( \sqrt {\lambda -\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}}y\right ) \] Applying the second B.C. gives\[ 0=B\sin \left ( \sqrt {\lambda -\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}}H\right ) \] For non trivial solution\begin {align*} \sqrt {\lambda -\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}}H & =m\pi \qquad m=1,2,3,\cdots \\ \lambda _{nm}-\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2} & =\left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}\right ) ^{2}\\ \lambda _{nm} & =\left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}\right ) ^{2}+\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}\qquad n=1,2,3,\cdots ,m=1,2,3,\cdots \end {align*}

Hence the \(Y_{nm}\left ( y\right ) \) solution is\[ Y_{nm}=B_{nm}\sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \qquad n=1,2,3,\cdots ,m=1,2,3,\cdots \] The time ode \(T\left ( t\right ) \) is now solved\begin {align*} T_{nm}^{\prime \prime }+c^{2}\lambda _{nm}T_{nm} & =0\\ T_{nm}\left ( t\right ) & =A_{nm}\cos \left ( c\sqrt {\lambda _{nm}}t\right ) +B_{nm}\sin \left ( c\sqrt {\lambda _{nm}}t\right ) \end {align*}

Combining all solutions, and merging all constants into two results in\begin {align} u_{nm}\left ( x,y,t\right ) & =X_{n}\left ( x\right ) Y_{nm}\left ( y\right ) T_{nm}\left ( t\right ) \nonumber \\ u\left ( x,y,t\right ) & =\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\sum _{m=1}^{\infty }X_{m}\left ( x\right ) Y_{mn}\left ( y\right ) T_{mn}\left ( t\right ) \nonumber \\ & =\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\sum _{m=1}^{\infty }A_{nm}\sin \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \cos \left ( c\sqrt {\lambda _{nm}}t\right ) \nonumber \\ & +\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\sum _{m=1}^{\infty }B_{nm}\sin \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \sin \left ( c\sqrt {\lambda _{nm}}t\right ) \tag {1} \end {align}

Initial conditions are now used to find \(A_{nm},B_{nm}\). At \(t=0\)\begin {align*} u\left ( x,y,0\right ) & =f\left ( x,y\right ) \\ \frac {\partial u}{\partial t}\left ( x,y,0\right ) & =g\left ( x,y\right ) \end {align*}

Applying first initial condition to (1)  gives\[ f\left ( x,y\right ) =\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\left ( \sum _{m=1}^{\infty }A_{nm}\sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \right ) \sin \left ( \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) x\right ) \] Applying 2D orthogonality gives\begin {align*} \int _{0}^{L}\int _{0}^{H}f\left ( x,y\right ) \sin \left ( \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \ dxdy & =A_{nm}\left ( \frac {L}{2}\right ) \left ( \frac {H}{2}\right ) \\ A_{nm} & =\frac {4}{LH}\int _{0}^{L}\int _{0}^{H}f\left ( x,y\right ) \sin \left ( \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \ dxdy \end {align*}

Taking time derivative of (1) gives\begin {align*} \frac {\partial u}{\partial t}\left ( x,y,t\right ) & =\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\sum _{m=1}^{\infty }-c\sqrt {\lambda _{nm}}A_{nm}\sin \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \sin \left ( c\sqrt {\lambda _{nm}}t\right ) \\ & +\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\sum _{m=1}^{\infty }c\sqrt {\lambda _{nm}}B_{nm}\sin \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \cos \left ( c\sqrt {\lambda _{nm}}t\right ) \end {align*}

At \(t=0\) the above becomes\[ g\left ( x,y\right ) =\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\sum _{m=1}^{\infty }c\sqrt {\lambda _{nm}}B_{nm}\sin \left ( \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \] Applying 2D orthogonality gives\begin {align*} \int _{0}^{L}\int _{0}^{H}g\left ( x,y\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \ dxdy & =B_{nm}\left ( \frac {L}{2}\right ) \left ( \frac {H}{2}\right ) \\ B_{nm} & =\frac {4}{LH}\int _{0}^{L}\int _{0}^{H}g\left ( x,y\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \ dxdy \end {align*}

Summary of solution\begin {align*} u\left ( x,y,t\right ) =\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\left ( \sum _{m=1}^{\infty }A_{nm}\sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \cos \left ( c\sqrt {\lambda _{nm}}t\right ) \right ) \sin \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}x\right ) & +\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\left ( \sum _{m=1}^{\infty }B_{nm}\sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \sin \left ( c\sqrt {\lambda _{nm}}t\right ) \right ) \sin \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}x\right ) \\ A_{nm} & =\frac {4}{LH}\int _{0}^{L}\int _{0}^{H}f\left ( x,y\right ) \sin \left ( \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \ dxdy\\ B_{nm} & =\frac {4}{LH}\int _{0}^{L}\int _{0}^{H}g\left ( x,y\right ) \sin \left ( \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \ dxdy\\ \lambda _{nm} & =\left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}\right ) ^{2}+\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2} \end {align*}

Hand solution

The basic solution for this type of PDE was already given in problem 5.2.1.1 on page 1490 as

\begin {align*} u\left ( x,y,t\right ) =\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\left ( \sum _{m=1}^{\infty }A_{nm}\sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \cos \left ( c\sqrt {\lambda _{nm}}t\right ) \right ) \sin \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}x\right ) & +\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\left ( \sum _{m=1}^{\infty }B_{nm}\sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \sin \left ( c\sqrt {\lambda _{nm}}t\right ) \right ) \sin \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}x\right ) \\ A_{nm} & =\frac {4}{LH}\int _{0}^{L}\int _{0}^{H}f\left ( x,y\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \ dxdy\\ B_{nm} & =\frac {4}{LH}\int _{0}^{L}\int _{0}^{H}g\left ( x,y\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \ dxdy\\ \lambda _{nm} & =\left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}\right ) ^{2}+\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}\qquad n=1,2,3,\cdots ,m=1,2,3,\cdots \end {align*}

In this problem \begin {align*} L & =1\\ H & =2\\ c & =\frac {1}{10}\\ f\left ( x,y\right ) & =x\cos y\\ g\left ( x,y\right ) & =0 \end {align*}

Hence the solution becomes

\begin {align*} u\left ( x,y,t\right ) =\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\left ( \sum _{m=1}^{\infty }A_{nm}\sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{2}y\right ) \cos \left ( \frac {1}{10}\sqrt {\lambda _{nm}}t\right ) \right ) \sin \left ( n\pi x\right ) & +\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\left ( \sum _{m=1}^{\infty }B_{nm}\sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{2}y\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {1}{10}\sqrt {\lambda _{nm}}t\right ) \right ) \sin \left ( n\pi x\right ) \\ A_{nm} & =2\int _{0}^{1}\int _{0}^{2}x\cos y\sin \left ( n\pi x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{2}y\right ) \ dxdy\\ B_{nm} & =0\\ \lambda _{nm} & =\left ( \frac {m\pi }{2}\right ) ^{2}+\left ( n\pi \right ) ^{2}\qquad n=1,2,3,\cdots ,m=1,2,3,\cdots \end {align*}

But \begin {align*} A_{nm} & =2\int _{0}^{1}\int _{0}^{2}x\cos y\sin \left ( n\pi x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{2}y\right ) \ dxdy\\ & =\frac {4\left ( -1\right ) ^{n}m\left ( -1+\left ( -1\right ) ^{m}\cos \left ( 2\right ) \right ) }{n\left ( m^{2}\pi ^{2}-4\right ) } \end {align*}

Hence the solution simplifies to

\begin {align*} u\left ( x,y,t\right ) & =\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\left ( \sum _{m=1}^{\infty }\frac {4\left ( -1\right ) ^{n}m\left ( -1+\left ( -1\right ) ^{m}\cos \left ( 2\right ) \right ) }{n\left ( m^{2}\pi ^{2}-4\right ) }\sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{2}y\right ) \cos \left ( \frac {1}{10}\sqrt {\left ( \frac {m\pi }{2}\right ) ^{2}+\left ( n\pi \right ) ^{2}}t\right ) \right ) \sin \left ( n\pi x\right ) \\ & =\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\left ( \sum _{m=1}^{\infty }\frac {4\left ( -1\right ) ^{n}m\left ( -1+\left ( -1\right ) ^{m}\cos \left ( 2\right ) \right ) }{n\left ( m^{2}\pi ^{2}-4\right ) }\cos \left ( \pi \frac {\sqrt {m^{2}+4n^{2}}}{20}t\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{2}y\right ) \right ) \sin \left ( n\pi x\right ) \end {align*}

For example, for \(n=1,m=1\) the solution becomes\[ u\left ( x,y,t\right ) =A_{1,1}\sin \left ( \frac {\pi }{L}x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {\pi }{H}y\right ) \cos \left ( c\sqrt {\left ( \frac {\pi }{H}\right ) ^{2}+\left ( \frac {1\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}}t\right ) \] And for \(n=1,m=5\) then the solution becomes\[ u\left ( x,y,t\right ) =A_{1,5}\sin \left ( \frac {\pi }{L}x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {5\pi }{H}y\right ) \cos \left ( c\sqrt {\left ( \frac {5\pi }{H}\right ) ^{2}+\left ( \frac {\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}}t\right ) \] And so on.

5.2.1.4 [397] All 4 edges fixed, zero initial velocity, Specific example, delta in center

Solve for \(u(x,y,t)\) with \(0<x<L\) and \(0<y<H\) and \(t>0\).

Solve \[ u_{tt} = c^2 \nabla ^2 u(x,y) \] With boundary conditions \begin {align*} u(x,0,t) &=0 \\ u(0,y,t) &= 0 \\ u(L,y,t) &=0 \\ u(x,H,t) &= 0 \end {align*}

And \begin {align*} L & =20\\ H & =30\\ c & =\frac {1}{3}\\ f\left ( x,y\right ) & =f_{1}\left ( x\right ) f_{2}\left ( y\right ) \end {align*}

Hand solution

The basic solution for this type of PDE was already given in problem 5.2.1.8 on page 1531 as\begin {align*} u\left ( x,y,t\right ) & =\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\sum _{m=1}^{\infty }A_{nm}\sin \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \cos \left ( c\sqrt {\left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}\right ) ^{2}+\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}}t\right ) \\ A_{nm} & =\frac {4}{LH}\int _{0}^{L}\int _{0}^{H}f\left ( x,y\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \ dxdy \end {align*}

In this problem \begin {align*} L & =20\\ H & =30\\ c & =\frac {1}{3}\\ f\left ( x,y\right ) & =f_{1}\left ( x\right ) f_{2}\left ( y\right ) \end {align*}

Where \(f\left ( x,y\right ) \) is an approximation of delta in the middle of the membrane \[ f_{1}\left ( x\right ) =\left \{ \begin {array} [c]{ccc}1 & & \frac {45}{100}L<x<\frac {55}{100}L\\ 0 & & \text {otherwise}\end {array} \right . \] And\[ f_{2}\left ( y\right ) =\left \{ \begin {array} [c]{ccc}1 & & \frac {45}{100}H<y<\frac {55}{100}H\\ 0 & & \text {otherwise}\end {array} \right . \] This is animation of the above solution using these specific values for for \(40\) seconds.

Hand solution

Solve for \(u\left ( r,\theta ,t\right ) \)\[ u_{tt}=c^{2}\nabla ^{2}u\left ( x,y\right ) \] With boundary conditions such that all edges are fixed, and initial conditions \(u\left ( x,y,0\right ) =f\left ( x,y\right ) \) and initial velocity \(g\left ( x,y\right ) =0.\)

Let \(u=X\left ( x\right ) Y\left ( y\right ) T\left ( t\right ) \). Substituting into the above PDE gives\begin {align*} \frac {1}{c^{2}}T^{\prime \prime }XY & =X^{\prime \prime }YT+Y^{\prime \prime }XT\\ \frac {1}{c^{2}}\frac {T^{\prime \prime }}{T} & =\frac {X^{\prime \prime }}{X}+\frac {Y^{\prime \prime }}{Y} \end {align*}

Hence\begin {align*} \frac {1}{c^{2}}\frac {T^{\prime \prime }}{T} & =-\lambda \\ \frac {X^{\prime \prime }}{X}+\frac {Y^{\prime \prime }}{Y} & =-\lambda \end {align*}

The time ODE becomes\[ T^{\prime \prime }+c^{2}\lambda T=0 \] And the space ODE is\begin {align*} \frac {X^{\prime \prime }}{X}+\frac {Y^{\prime \prime }}{Y} & =-\lambda \\ \frac {X^{\prime \prime }}{X} & =-\lambda -\frac {Y^{\prime \prime }}{Y} \end {align*}

Using a new separation variable \(\mu \) gives the following two ODE’s\begin {align*} \frac {X^{\prime \prime }}{X} & =-\mu \\ -\lambda -\frac {Y^{\prime \prime }}{Y} & =-\mu \end {align*}

Or\begin {align*} X^{\prime \prime }+\mu X & =0\\ X\left ( 0\right ) & =0\\ X\left ( L\right ) & =0 \end {align*}

And\begin {align*} Y^{\prime \prime }+Y\left ( \lambda -\mu \right ) & =0\\ Y\left ( 0\right ) & =0\\ Y\left ( H\right ) & =0 \end {align*}

Solving first for the \(X\left ( x\right ) \) ODE, and knowing that \(\mu \) must be positive only here from the nature of the boundary conditions gives\[ X=A\cos \left ( \sqrt {\mu }x\right ) +B\sin \left ( \sqrt {\mu }x\right ) \] Applying B.C. at \(x=0\)\[ 0=A \] Hence solution becomes \(X\left ( x\right ) =B\sin \left ( \sqrt {\mu }x\right ) \). Applying the B.C. at \(x=L\) gives\[ 0=B\sin \left ( \sqrt {\mu }L\right ) \] Non trivial solution requires that\begin {align*} \sqrt {\mu }L & =n\pi \qquad n=1,2,3,\cdots \\ \mu _{n} & =\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2} \end {align*}

Therefore the eigenfunctions \(X_{n}\left ( x\right ) \) are\[ X_{n}\left ( x\right ) =\sin \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}x\right ) \qquad n=1,2,3,\cdots \] Solving the \(Y\left ( y\right ) \) ODE\[ Y_{n}^{\prime \prime }+\left ( \lambda -\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}\right ) Y_{n}=0\qquad n=1,2,3,\cdots \] The nature of the boundary conditions on \(Y\left ( y\right ) \) suggests that \(\left ( \lambda -\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}\right ) \) must be positive (if \(\lambda -\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}=0\) or \(\lambda -\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}<0\), trivial solutions result).

Hence the solution for \(Y_{n}\left ( y\right ) \) becomes\[ Y_{n}\left ( y\right ) =A\cos \left ( \sqrt {\lambda -\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}}y\right ) +B\sin \left ( \sqrt {\lambda -\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}}y\right ) \] Applying first B.C. \(Y\left ( 0\right ) =0\) gives\[ 0=A \] The solution becomes\[ Y_{n}\left ( y\right ) =B_{n}\sin \left ( \sqrt {\lambda -\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}}y\right ) \] Applying second B.C. \(Y\left ( H\right ) =0\) gives\[ 0=B\sin \left ( \sqrt {\lambda -\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}}H\right ) \] Non trivial solution requires that\begin {align*} \sqrt {\lambda -\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}}H & =m\pi \qquad n=1,2,3,\cdots ,m=1,2,3,\cdots \\ \lambda _{nm}-\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2} & =\left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}\right ) ^{2}\\ \lambda _{nm} & =\left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}\right ) ^{2}+\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2} \end {align*}

Hence the \(Y_{nm}\left ( y\right ) \) eigenfunctions are\[ Y_{nm}\left ( y\right ) =\sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \qquad n=1,2,3,\cdots ,m=1,2,3,\cdots \] Now the time \(T\left ( t\right ) \) ode is solved, and since \(\lambda _{nm}\) is positive, then \begin {align*} T_{nm}^{\prime \prime }+c^{2}\lambda _{nm}T_{nm} & =0\\ T_{nm}\left ( t\right ) & =A_{nm}\cos \left ( c\sqrt {\lambda _{nm}}t\right ) +B_{nm}\sin \left ( c\sqrt {\lambda _{nm}}t\right ) \\ & =A_{nm}\cos \left ( c\sqrt {\left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}\right ) ^{2}+\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}}t\right ) +B_{nm}\sin \left ( c\sqrt {\left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}\right ) ^{2}+\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}}t\right ) \end {align*}

Combining all solution , and merging all constants into two results in

\begin {align} u_{nm}\left ( x,y,t\right ) & =X_{n}\left ( x\right ) Y_{nm}\left ( y\right ) T_{nm}\left ( t\right ) \nonumber \\ u\left ( x,y,t\right ) & =\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\sum _{m=1}^{\infty }X_{n}\left ( x\right ) Y_{nm}\left ( y\right ) T_{nm}\left ( t\right ) \nonumber \\ & =\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\sum _{m=1}^{\infty }A_{nm}\sin \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \cos \left ( c\sqrt {\left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}\right ) ^{2}+\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}}t\right ) +\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\sum _{m=1}^{\infty }B_{nm}\sin \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \sin \left ( c\sqrt {\left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}\right ) ^{2}+\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}}t\right ) \tag {1} \end {align}

Initial conditions are now used to find \(A_{nm},B_{nm}\). At \(t=0\)

\begin {align*} u\left ( x,y,0\right ) & =f\left ( x,y\right ) \\ \frac {\partial u}{\partial t}\left ( x,y,0\right ) & =0 \end {align*}

Applying first initial condition to (1)  gives\[ f\left ( x,y\right ) =\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\sum _{m=1}^{\infty }A_{nm}\sin \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \] Applying 2D orthogonality gives\begin {align*} \int _{0}^{L}\int _{0}^{H}f\left ( x,y\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \ dxdy & =A_{nm}\left ( \frac {L}{2}\right ) \left ( \frac {H}{2}\right ) \\ A_{nm} & =\frac {4}{LH}\int _{0}^{L}\int _{0}^{H}f\left ( x,y\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \ dxdy \end {align*}

Taking time derivative of (1) gives\begin {align*} \frac {\partial u}{\partial t}\left ( x,y,t\right ) & =\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\sum _{m=1}^{\infty }-c\sqrt {\left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}\right ) ^{2}+\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}}A_{nm}\sin \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \sin \left ( c\sqrt {\left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}\right ) ^{2}+\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}}t\right ) \\ & +\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\sum _{m=1}^{\infty }c\sqrt {\left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}\right ) ^{2}+\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}}B_{nm}\sin \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \cos \left ( c\sqrt {\left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}\right ) ^{2}+\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}}t\right ) \end {align*}

AT \(t=0\) the above becomes\[ \int _{0}^{H}g\left ( x,y\right ) =\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\sum _{m=1}^{\infty }c\sqrt {\left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}\right ) ^{2}+\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}}B_{nm}\sin \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \] Applying 2D orthogonality gives\[ \int _{0}^{L}\int _{0}^{H}g\left ( x,y\right ) \sin \left ( \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \ dxdy=B_{nm}\left ( \frac {L}{2}\right ) \left ( \frac {H}{2}\right ) \] But the initial velocity \(g\left ( x,y\right ) =0\). Hence \(B_{nm}=0\) for all \(n,m\).

Summary of solution\begin {align*} u\left ( x,y,t\right ) & =\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\sum _{m=1}^{\infty }A_{nm}\sin \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \cos \left ( c\sqrt {\left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}\right ) ^{2}+\left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}\right ) ^{2}}t\right ) \\ A_{nm} & =\frac {4}{LH}\int _{0}^{L}\int _{0}^{H}f\left ( x,y\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {n\pi }{L}x\right ) \sin \left ( \frac {m\pi }{H}y\right ) \ dxdy \end {align*}
