The type(s) of ODE detected by this program : "higher_order_linear_constant_coefficients_ODE"

Maple gives the following as the ode type

[[_high_order, _missing_x]]

\[ \boxed {y^{\prime \prime \prime \prime }+4 y^{\prime \prime \prime }+4 y^{\prime \prime }=1} \] This is higher order nonhomogeneous ODE. Let the solution be \[ y = y_h + y_p \] Where \(y_h\) is the solution to the homogeneous ODE And \(y_p\) is a particular solution to the nonhomogeneous ODE. \(y_h\) is the solution to \[ y^{\prime \prime \prime \prime }+4 y^{\prime \prime \prime }+4 y^{\prime \prime } = 0 \] The characteristic equation is \[ \lambda ^{4}+4 \lambda ^{3}+4 \lambda ^{2} = 0 \] The roots of the above equation are \begin {align*} \lambda _1 &= 0\\ \lambda _2 &= 0\\ \lambda _3 &= -2\\ \lambda _4 &= -2 \end {align*}

Therefore the homogeneous solution is \[ y_h(x)=x c_{2} +c_{1} +{\mathrm e}^{-2 x} c_{3} +x \,{\mathrm e}^{-2 x} c_{4} \] The fundamental set of solutions for the homogeneous solution are the following \begin{align*} y_1 &= 1 \\ y_2 &= x \\ y_3 &= {\mathrm e}^{-2 x} \\ y_4 &= x \,{\mathrm e}^{-2 x} \\ \end{align*} Now the particular solution to the given ODE is found \[ y^{\prime \prime \prime \prime }+4 y^{\prime \prime \prime }+4 y^{\prime \prime } = 1 \] The particular solution is found using the method of undetermined coefficients. Looking at the RHS of the ode, which is \[ 1 \] Shows that the corresponding undetermined set of the basis functions (UC_set) for the trial solution is \[ [\{1\}] \] While the set of the basis functions for the homogeneous solution found earlier is \[ \{1, x, x \,{\mathrm e}^{-2 x}, {\mathrm e}^{-2 x}\} \] Since \(1\) is duplicated in the UC_set, then this basis is multiplied by extra \(x\). The UC_set becomes \[ [\{x\}] \] Since \(x\) is duplicated in the UC_set, then this basis is multiplied by extra \(x\). The UC_set becomes \[ [\{x^{2}\}] \] Since there was duplication between the basis functions in the UC_set and the basis functions of the homogeneous solution, the trial solution is a linear combination of all the basis function in the above updated UC_set. \[ y_p = A_{1} x^{2} \] The unknowns \(\{A_{1}\}\) are found by substituting the above trial solution \(y_p\) into the ODE and comparing coefficients. Substituting the trial solution into the ODE and simplifying gives \[ 8 A_{1} = 1 \] Solving for the unknowns by comparing coefficients results in \[ \left [A_{1} = {\frac {1}{8}}\right ] \] Substituting the above back in the above trial solution \(y_p\), gives the particular solution \[ y_p = \frac {x^{2}}{8} \] Therefore the general solution is \begin{align*} y &= y_h + y_p \\ &= \left (x c_{2} +c_{1} +{\mathrm e}^{-2 x} c_{3} +x \,{\mathrm e}^{-2 x} c_{4}\right ) + \left (\frac {x^{2}}{8}\right ) \\ \end{align*} Which simplifies to \[ y = \left (c_{4} x +c_{3} \right ) {\mathrm e}^{-2 x}+x c_{2} +c_{1} +\frac {x^{2}}{8} \]

Summary

The solution(s) found are the following \begin{align*} \tag{1} y &= \left (c_{4} x +c_{3} \right ) {\mathrm e}^{-2 x}+x c_{2} +c_{1} +\frac {x^{2}}{8} \\ \end{align*}

Verification of solutions

\[ y = \left (c_{4} x +c_{3} \right ) {\mathrm e}^{-2 x}+x c_{2} +c_{1} +\frac {x^{2}}{8} \] Verified OK.
