[[_2nd_order, _linear, _nonhomogeneous]]

\[ \boxed {x^{\prime \prime }+4 x=\frac {\left (t -5\right ) \operatorname {Heaviside}\left (t -5\right )}{5}+\left (2-\frac {t}{5}\right ) \operatorname {Heaviside}\left (-10+t \right )} \] With initial conditions \begin {align*} [x \left (0\right ) = 0, x^{\prime }\left (0\right ) = 0] \end {align*}

17.7.1 Existence and uniqueness analysis

This is a linear ODE. In canonical form it is written as \begin {align*} x^{\prime \prime } + p(t)x^{\prime } + q(t) x &= F \end {align*}

Where here \begin {align*} p(t) &=0\\ q(t) &=4\\ F &=\frac {\left (10-t \right ) \operatorname {Heaviside}\left (-10+t \right )}{5}+\frac {\left (t -5\right ) \operatorname {Heaviside}\left (t -5\right )}{5} \end {align*}

Hence the ode is \begin {align*} x^{\prime \prime }+4 x = \frac {\left (10-t \right ) \operatorname {Heaviside}\left (-10+t \right )}{5}+\frac {\left (t -5\right ) \operatorname {Heaviside}\left (t -5\right )}{5} \end {align*}

The domain of \(p(t)=0\) is \[ \{-\infty

Solving using the Laplace transform method. Let \begin {align*} \mathcal {L}\left (x\right ) =Y(s) \end {align*}

Taking the Laplace transform of the ode and using the relations that \begin {align*} \mathcal {L}\left (x^{\prime }\right ) &= s Y(s) - x \left (0\right )\\ \mathcal {L}\left (x^{\prime \prime }\right ) &= s^2 Y(s) - x'(0) - s x \left (0\right ) \end {align*}

The given ode now becomes an algebraic equation in the Laplace domain \begin {align*} s^{2} Y \left (s \right )-x^{\prime }\left (0\right )-s x \left (0\right )+4 Y \left (s \right ) = \frac {-{\mathrm e}^{-10 s}+{\mathrm e}^{-5 s}}{5 s^{2}}\tag {1} \end {align*}

But the initial conditions are \begin {align*} x \left (0\right )&=0\\ x'(0) &=0 \end {align*}

Substituting these initial conditions in above in Eq (1) gives \begin {align*} s^{2} Y \left (s \right )+4 Y \left (s \right ) = \frac {-{\mathrm e}^{-10 s}+{\mathrm e}^{-5 s}}{5 s^{2}} \end {align*}

Solving the above equation for \(Y(s)\) results in \begin {align*} Y(s) = -\frac {{\mathrm e}^{-10 s}-{\mathrm e}^{-5 s}}{5 s^{2} \left (s^{2}+4\right )} \end {align*}

Taking the inverse Laplace transform gives \begin {align*} x&= \mathcal {L}^{-1}\left (Y(s)\right )\\ &= \mathcal {L}^{-1}\left (-\frac {{\mathrm e}^{-10 s}-{\mathrm e}^{-5 s}}{5 s^{2} \left (s^{2}+4\right )}\right )\\ &= -\frac {\operatorname {Heaviside}\left (-10+t \right ) \left (-20+2 t -\sin \left (-20+2 t \right )\right )}{40}+\frac {\operatorname {Heaviside}\left (t -5\right ) \left (2 t -10-\sin \left (2 t -10\right )\right )}{40} \end {align*}

Converting the above solution to piecewise it becomes \[ x = \left \{\begin {array}{cc} 0 & t <5 \\ \frac {t}{20}-\frac {1}{4}-\frac {\sin \left (2 t -10\right )}{40} & t <10 \\ \frac {1}{4}+\frac {\sin \left (-20+2 t \right )}{40}-\frac {\sin \left (2 t -10\right )}{40} & 10\le t \end {array}\right . \] Simplifying the solution gives \[ x = \frac {\left (\left \{\begin {array}{cc} 0 & t <5 \\ 2 t -10-\sin \left (2 t -10\right ) & t <10 \\ 10+\sin \left (-20+2 t \right )-\sin \left (2 t -10\right ) & 10\le t \end {array}\right .\right )}{40} \]

Summary

The solution(s) found are the following \begin{align*} \tag{1} x &= \frac {\left (\left \{\begin {array}{cc} 0 & t <5 \\ 2 t -10-\sin \left (2 t -10\right ) & t <10 \\ 10+\sin \left (-20+2 t \right )-\sin \left (2 t -10\right ) & 10\le t \end {array}\right .\right )}{40} \\ \end{align*}

Verification of solutions

\[ x = \frac {\left (\left \{\begin {array}{cc} 0 & t <5 \\ 2 t -10-\sin \left (2 t -10\right ) & t <10 \\ 10+\sin \left (-20+2 t \right )-\sin \left (2 t -10\right ) & 10\le t \end {array}\right .\right )}{40} \] Verified OK.
