Math 314 Lecture 26: Monday, November 8th 1999.

Today, we applied d'Alembert's method of solving the wave equation to the case of a semi-infinite string with a time-dependent boundary condition.

A simple example was animated in Maple.

Then we moved on to an introduction of the Potential Equation (chapter 4 of the textbook), and a discussion of its uses and the types of boundary conditions encountered.
