The paper is concerned with the practical determination of the characteristic values and functions of the wave equation of Schrodinger for a non-Coulomb central field, for which the potential is given as a function of the distance r from the nucleus.. The method used is to integrate a modification of the equation outwards from initial conditions corresponding to a solution finite at r = 0, and Cited by: the course, we will study particular solutions to the spherical wave equation, when we solve the nonhomogeneous version of the wave equation. Let’s rewrite the wave equation here as a reminder, r2 2+ k = 0: (1) For the time being, we consider the wave equation in terms of a scalar quantity, rather than a vector eld E or H as we did Size: KB.

It appeared in the Bulletin of the AMS in May The main goal of these lectures is to provide a motivation for the construction of approxi-mate solutions. It is important to note that a numerical solution is approximate. As we cannot obtain an exact solution to our problem, we construct an approximating problem that is amenable to automatic computation. The construction and analysis of com-putational methods is a mathematical science in its own right. It File Size: 6MB.

A discussion of the Wentzel-Brillouin-Kramers method of obtaining an approximate solution of the wave equation is given from the point of view that it forms a link between the quantum theory of Bohr and the new quantum by: Approximate the solution to the wave equation using the Finite-Difference Algorithm with m = 4, N = 4, and T = Compare your results at t = to the actual solution u (x, t) = cos π t sin π x.

In mathematical physics, the WKB approximation or WKB method is a method for finding approximate solutions to linear differential equations with spatially varying coefficients.

It is typically used for a semiclassical calculation in quantum mechanics in which the wavefunction is recast as an exponential function, semiclassically expanded, and then either the amplitude or the phase is taken to.

In this paper, we apply the local fractional Laplace variational iteration method (LFLVIM) and the local fractional Laplace decomposition method (LFLDM) to obtain approximate solutions for solving the damped wave equation and dissipative wave equation within local fractional derivative operators (LFDOs).
