    The document provides details of an assignment to solve a partial differential equation using the Galerkin method. It includes: 1) The governing PDE to be solved and boundary conditions. 2) Development of the weighted residual statement and integration by parts to obtain the weak form equation. 3) Requirement that the trial and weighting functions satisfy the essential and natural boundary conditions. 4) Observation that the trial solution only needs to be thrice differentiable for the weak form equation.

    Problem Statement:

    2.5 Give a one-parameter Galerkin solution of the following equation, for the two domains shown in
    fig. P2.5
    𝜕2 𝑢 𝜕2 𝑦
    + =1
    𝜕𝑥 2 𝜕𝑦 2

    Required:
    One- parameter Galerkin solution of partial differential equation.

    Solution:
    The governing differential equation was given by
    2 2
    𝜕 𝑢 𝜕 𝑦
    2 + 2 =1
    𝜕𝑥 𝜕𝑦
    And the boundary conditions
    Essential: v(0) = 0, v(L) = 0 (zero displacements)
    𝑑𝑣 𝑑𝑣
    Natural: (0) = 0 (𝐿) = 0
    𝑑𝑥 𝑑𝑥

    Let vˆ(x) be the assumed trial solution and let W(x) be the weighting function. The weighted residual
    statement can be written as:
    𝐿 𝑑4 𝑣̂
    ∫0 𝑊(𝑥) (𝐸𝐼 𝑑4 𝑥 − 𝑞0 ) 𝑑𝑥 = 0
    𝐿 𝑑4 𝑣̂ 𝐿
    ∫0 𝑊(𝑥)𝑑 {𝐸𝐼 𝑑4 𝑥} = ∫0 𝑊𝑞𝑑𝑥

    On integration by parts, we get


    𝐿
    𝑑3 𝑣̂ 𝐿 𝑑3 𝑣̂ 𝑑𝑊(𝑥) 𝐿
    [𝑊(𝑥)𝐸𝐼 𝑑3 𝑥] − ∫0 (𝐸𝐼 𝑑3 𝑥) 𝑑𝑥 = ∫0 𝑊𝑞𝑑𝑥
    0 𝑑𝑥

    Integrating by parts once again, we get


    𝐿 𝐿
    𝑑3 𝑣̂ 𝑑𝑊(𝑥) 𝑑2 𝑣̂ 𝐿 𝑑2 𝑣̂ 𝑑2 𝑊(𝑥) 𝐿
    [𝑊(𝑥)𝐸𝐼 𝑑3 𝑥] − {[ 𝐸𝐼 𝑑2 𝑥] − ∫0 (𝐸𝐼 𝑑2 𝑥) 𝑑𝑥} = ∫0 𝑊𝑞𝑑𝑥
    0 𝑑𝑥 0 𝑑2 𝑥

    Integrating for the last time, we then get


    𝐿 𝐿 𝐿
    𝑑3 𝑣̂ 𝑑𝑊(𝑥) 𝑑2 𝑣̂ 𝑑2 𝑊(𝑥) 𝑑𝑣̂ 𝐿 𝑑𝑣̂ 𝑑3 𝑊(𝑥) 𝐿
    [𝑊(𝑥)𝐸𝐼 𝑑3 𝑥] − {[ 𝐸𝐼 𝑑2 𝑥] − {[ 𝐸𝐼 𝑑𝑥] − ∫0 (𝐸𝐼 𝑑𝑥 ) 𝑑𝑥 }} = ∫0 𝑊𝑞𝑑𝑥
    0 𝑑𝑥 0 𝑑2 𝑥 0 𝑑3 𝑥

    Thus we now have equal order of differentiation on both the dependent variable v(x) and the weighting
    function W(x). Substituting for the prescribed natural boundary conditions at either end that dv/dx equals
    zero, we have a resulting weak form:
    𝐿 𝐿
    𝑑3 𝑣̂ 𝑑𝑊(𝑥) 𝑑2 𝑣̂ 𝐿 𝑑𝑣̂ 𝑑3 𝑊(𝑥) 𝐿
    [𝑊(𝑥)𝐸𝐼 𝑑3 𝑥] − [ 𝐸𝐼 𝑑2 𝑥] − ∫0 (𝐸𝐼 𝑑𝑥 ) 𝑑𝑥 = ∫0 𝑊𝑞𝑑𝑥
    0 𝑑𝑥 0 𝑑3 𝑥

    subject to the essential boundary condition that vˆ(0) = 0, vˆ(L) = 0 . In view of these prescribed essential
    boundary conditions, we require that the weighting function be such that W(0)= 0 and W(L)= 0. Thus
    the weak form becomes,
    𝐿
    𝑑𝑊(𝑥) 𝑑2 𝑣̂ 𝐿 𝑑𝑣̂ 𝑑3 𝑊(𝑥) 𝐿
    −[ 𝐸𝐼 𝑑2 𝑥] − ∫0 (𝐸𝐼 𝑑𝑥 ) 𝑑𝑥 = ∫0 𝑊𝑞𝑑𝑥
    𝑑𝑥 0 𝑑3 𝑥
    subject to
    vˆ(0) = 0 = vˆ(L)

    W(0) = 0 = W(L)

    We can observed that the trial solution v(x) for weak form equation only needs thrice differentiable while
    the trial solution for weighted statement equation should be differentiable at least four times. Thus we
    can take a simple

    Exact solution:
