Simultaneous Differential Equations

Simultaneous Differential Equations Mathematics-II (BT202) का एक महत्वपूर्ण अध्याय है। Engineering Mathematics में कई physical systems ऐसे होते हैं जिनमें एक से अधिक dependent variables एक-दूसरे पर निर्भर होते हैं। ऐसे systems को एक ही Differential Equation द्वारा व्यक्त नहीं किया जा सकता, इसलिए Simultaneous Differential Equations का उपयोग किया जाता है।

Introduction

Engineering, Physics तथा Applied Sciences में अनेक समस्याएँ ऐसी होती हैं जहाँ दो या अधिक variables समय या किसी अन्य parameter के साथ बदलते हैं तथा एक-दूसरे को प्रभावित करते हैं। उदाहरण के लिए Electrical Circuits, Mechanical Vibrations, Population Models तथा Control Systems।

ऐसी परिस्थितियों में Differential Equations का एक समूह प्राप्त होता है जिसे Simultaneous Differential Equations कहा जाता है।

Definition

जब दो या अधिक Differential Equations एक साथ उपस्थित हों तथा उनमें multiple dependent variables शामिल हों, तब उन्हें Simultaneous Differential Equations कहा जाता है।

dx/dt = ax + by

dy/dt = cx + dy

यह Simultaneous Differential Equations का एक सामान्य उदाहरण है।

General Form

f₁(x,y,D)x + f₂(x,y,D)y = X₁

g₁(x,y,D)x + g₂(x,y,D)y = X₂

जहाँ D = d/dt या d/dx हो सकता है।

Operator Method

Let

D = d/dt

Then equations can be written as:

(D-a)x - by = 0

-cx + (D-d)y = 0

Operator method is commonly used to eliminate one variable.

Principle of Solution

Simultaneous Differential Equations को solve करने के लिए एक variable को eliminate किया जाता है। इसके बाद एक Higher Order Differential Equation प्राप्त होती है जिसे standard methods से solve किया जाता है।

Solution Procedure:

1. Operator notation में equation लिखें।
2. एक variable को eliminate करें।
3. Single Higher Order Differential Equation प्राप्त करें।
4. Equation solve करें।
5. दूसरा variable प्राप्त करें।

Mathematical Theory

Consider:

(D-a)x - by = 0

-cx + (D-d)y = 0

Multiply first equation by (D-d):

(D-d)(D-a)x - b(D-d)y = 0

Using second equation:

(D-d)y = cx

Substitute:

[(D-d)(D-a)-bc]x = 0

This becomes a higher order differential equation in x only.

Solved Example

Solve:

dx/dt = x + y

dy/dt = 3x + y

Operator Form:

(D-1)x - y = 0

-3x + (D-1)y = 0

Eliminating y:

[(D-1)² - 3]x = 0

Expanding:

D² - 2D - 2 = 0

Auxiliary Equation:

m² - 2m - 2 = 0

Roots:

m = 1 ± √3

Therefore:

x = C₁e^(1+√3)t + C₂e^(1-√3)t

Substituting into original equation gives y.
