First Order Partial Differential Equations
people.uncw.edu › hermanr › pde1equations. In this chapter we will focus on first order partial differential equations. Examples are given by ut +ux = 0. ut +uux = 0. ut +uux = u. 3ux 2uy +u = x. For function of two variables, which the above are examples, a general first order partial differential equation for u = u(x,y) is given as F(x,y,u,ux,uy) = 0, (x,y) 2D ˆR2.(1.4)
