Hi,
I'm looking over the examples in my book for this problem and the general approach is
a(x,y,z)*u_x + b(x,y,z)*u_y = c(x,y,z)
where u(x,y)
I have the following problem in my notes:
1/x * u_x + 1/y * u_y = x^2 * sqrt(z)
and I get the solution easily because of the format:
Another problem i did was
y*u_x - x * u_y = 2xyu
where i multiplied both sides by 1/xy to get:
1/x*u_x - 1/y * u_y = 2u
the solution followed easily because of the classic format:
however, what i don't get is this format
u*u_x + y*u_y = x
the problem is an ivp with the following characteristics:
x = s, y = s, u = 2s
z = u(x_o,y_o) = u(s,s) = 2s
how do i get the solutin when it's not in the standard format? Or am i misinterpreting
a(x,y,z)*u_x + b(x,y,z)*u_y = c(x,y,z)
in the sense that the coefficient functions (a(x,y,z), b(x,y,z), c(x.y,z) can be any variable x,y,u(x_o,y_o)?
I don't have the book and all my examples are written in the convenient form I'm after which confuses me
thank you
