Differential Equations of First Order and Higher Degree

Differential Equations of First Order and Higher Degree Mathematics-II (BT202) का एक महत्वपूर्ण विषय है। इस प्रकार की Differential Equations में derivative का order 1 होता है लेकिन derivative की degree 1 से अधिक हो सकती है। Engineering Mathematics में इन equations का उपयोग Fluid Mechanics, Heat Transfer, Control Systems, Electrical Networks तथा Mechanical Engineering की समस्याओं को हल करने में किया जाता है।

Introduction

Differential Equation किसी variable और उसके derivatives के बीच संबंध को व्यक्त करती है। यदि highest derivative प्रथम order का हो तो equation First Order कहलाती है। यदि derivative की highest power एक से अधिक हो तो equation Higher Degree कहलाती है।

ऐसी equations सामान्य Linear Differential Equations से अधिक जटिल होती हैं तथा इनके लिए विशेष methods का उपयोग किया जाता है।

Definition

ऐसी Differential Equation जिसमें highest order derivative प्रथम order का हो तथा derivative की degree 1 से अधिक हो, उसे First Order Higher Degree Differential Equation कहते हैं।

F(x,y,p)=0

जहाँ

p = dy/dx

Examples

• (dy/dx)² = x + y
• (dy/dx)³ + 3(dy/dx) = x
• y = px + p²
• x = py + p³

Classification

First Order Higher Degree Differential Equations को मुख्यतः निम्न प्रकारों में वर्गीकृत किया जाता है:

1. Solvable for p
2. Solvable for y
3. Solvable for x
4. Clairaut Equation
5. Lagrange Equation

Case 1: Solvable for p

General Form:

F(x,y,p)=0

Factorizing:

(p-f₁)(p-f₂)(p-f₃)=0

Hence,

p=f₁

p=f₂

p=f₃

Each equation is solved separately.

Case 2: Solvable for y

General Form:

y = F(x,p)

Differentiate with respect to x:

dy/dx = ∂F/∂x + ∂F/∂p · dp/dx

Then substitute:

p = dy/dx

and solve for p.

Case 3: Solvable for x

General Form:

x = F(y,p)

Differentiate with respect to y:

dx/dy = ∂F/∂y + ∂F/∂p · dp/dy

Use

dx/dy = 1/p

and solve.

Clairaut Equation

Standard Form:

y = px + f(p)

Differentiating:

dy/dx = p + [x + f'(p)]dp/dx

Since dy/dx = p

Therefore,

[x + f'(p)]dp/dx = 0

General Solution:

y = cx + f(c)

Lagrange Equation

Standard Form:

y = xp + f(p)

or

y = xφ(p) + ψ(p)

This equation is solved by differentiation and reduction to a linear form.

Solution Procedure

1. Identify the type of equation.
2. Express equation in suitable form.
3. Differentiate if required.
4. Substitute p = dy/dx.
5. Reduce to solvable form.
6. Integrate and obtain solution.
