    Assignment 1
    Due date: Feb 13, 2015

    1. Consider the problem on I = (0, 1):


     
    d du
    − + u = x, u(0) = u(1) = 0 (1)
    dx dx

    The exact solution for this problem is


    2e
    u=− sinh x + x (2)
    e2 −1
    n
    aj φj (x), φj (x) = xj (1 − x) and n = 2. Determine the relative error at
    P
    Assume uh =
    j=1
    u′h (x = 0) and at u′h (x = ℓ).

    2. Solve Equation (1) with φ1 (x) = x(1 − x) and φ2 (x) = x(1 − x)(1 − 2x) and show that the
    solution u = b1 φ1 (x)+b2 φ2 (x) is same as the solution obtained by choosing φJ (x) = xJ (1−x).

    3. Explain why the following problem is not well posed:

    ∂2u
    − = f, in (0, 1) (3)
    ∂x2
    subject to u′ (0) = u′ (1) = 0.

    4. Given a strong form for the heat conduction in a circular plate:


     
    d dT
    k r + rs = 0, 0 < r < R (4)
    dr dr

    with dT |
    dr r=0
    = 0 and T (r = R) = 0. R is the radius of the plate, s is the heat source per unit
    length along the plate radius, T is the temperature and κ is the conductivity.

    ˆ Construct the weak form.


    ˆ Use T = a0 + a1 r + a2 r 2 and weight functions of the same form, obtain the solution of
    the weak form.
