Classification of PDE Into Elliptic, Parabolic and

The document discusses the classification of partial differential equations (PDEs) into elliptic, parabolic, and hyperbolic forms. It defines PDEs and explains that they contain two or more independent variables. It then presents the condition for classifying a second order PDE - whether B - 4AC is greater than, equal to, or less than 0 determines if it is hyperbolic, parabolic, or elliptic, respectively. Examples of each type of PDE are provided to illustrate the classification.

• PDE stands for partial differential
equation.
• A differential equation containing two
or more independent variables.
• The order of a partial differential
equation is the order of the highest
What are PDE? derivative involved.
• Used for the solution of, physical
problems involving functions of
several variables, such as heat, sound,
fluid flow, elasticity etc.

Consider general second order PDE:

Conditions for the PDE to be


Classification of hyperbolic, parabolic or elliptical are:

PDE Eq(1) is hyperbolic if --> B - 4AC > 0


Eq(1) is parabolic if --> B - 4AC = 0
Eq(1) is elliptical if --> B - 4AC < 0

 Example 1.

Here
A=1,B=0,C=-1

I.e. >0

Example of
Hyperbolic PDE
Example 2
In short notation

Here
A=1 B=3 C=1

I.e. >0

Example
  1.

Here
A=1,B=0,C=0

I.e. 0
So it is parabolic pde

Example of Example 2
In short notation
Parabolic PDE Here
2

A=2 B=4 C=8

I.e. 0
So it is parabolic pde

 Example 1.

Here
A=1,B=0,C=1

I.e. 0
So it is elliptic pde
Example of
Elliptical PDE Example 2
In short notation
3
Here
A=4 B=1 C=1

I.e. 0
So it is elliptic pde
