Laplace Differential Transform Method for Solving Nonlinear Nonhomogeneous Partial Differential Equations

Daniel Deborah O.*, Ayodele Moyosola

Department of Mathematics and Computer Science, Southwestern University, Okun Owa, Nigeria

Abstract: In this paper, the Laplace Differential Transform Method (LDTM) was utilized to solve some nonlinear nonhomogeneous partial differential equations. This technique is the combined form of the Laplace transform method with the Differential Transform Method (DTM). The combined method is efficient in handling nonlinear nonhomogeneous partial differential equations with variable coefficients. Laplace transform is introduced to overcome the inadequacy resulted from unsatisfied boundary condition in using DTM. Illustrative examples were examined to demonstrate the effectiveness of Laplace differential transform method. Results revealed that the LDTM is well appropriate for use in solving such problems.

1. Introduction

Many natural events in applied sciences and engineering are modeled with linear and nonlinear partial differential equations as a result of the nature of phenomena happening around the world. Although, most of these problems involving linear or nonlinear partial differential equations do not have analytical solution, hence, numerical or approximate methods have efficiently been used to solve these equations.

Pertubation method [1] is well known for solving nonlinear partial differential equations but it is only used based on the existence of small parameter. Hence, many methods were presented to eliminate the small parameter, which include: Adominan Decomposition Method [2,3], Variational Iteration Method [4,5,6,7], Homotopy Perturbation Method [8,9,10], Differential transform method [11,12,13,14], Homotopy Analysis Method [15,16] and Parameter Expansion Method [17,18]. But, most of these methods works fine for small range, owning to the satisfied boundary conditions, and the remaining unsatisfied conditions are left out of the final results.

However, in recent research, Laplace transform is being introduced to overcome inadequacy resulted from unsatisfied conditions.

Laplace Homotopy Perturbation Method (LHPM) [19,20,21], which combines the Laplace transform and Homotopy Pertubation method(HPM), is effectively employed to solve one-dimensional non-homogeneous partial differential equation; Laplace Adominan Decomposition Method (LADM) [22,23,24,25], which combines the Laplace transform and Adomian Decomposition Method (ADM), is used for solving nonlinear Volterra integro-differential equations; Laplace Differential transform method (LDTM) [26], which combines Laplace transform and Differential Transform Method (DTM), is being used to solve linear non-homogeneous partial differential equations with variable coefficient.

Therefore, in this paper, nonlinear nonhomogeneous partial differential equations with variable coefficient are solved using coupled Laplace transform and Differential Transform Method, with the aim to show the effectiveness of this method in proffering reliable solution to nonlinear PDEs.

2. Overview of Laplace Differential Transform Method

In this section, basic idea of Laplace Differential Transform Method (LDTM) is discussed. But, the basic idea of Laplace transform and Differential transform method (DTM) are introduced first before considering the combined form.

2.1. Overview of Laplace Transform

Laplace transform is the integral transformation of a given derivative function with real variable t into a complex function with variable s. It is used to convert differential equations into algebraic equations.

The Laplace transform for a function is defined in [27]

The Laplace transform for a function exist if the transformation integral exist. Therefore,

For some real positive . The integral will converge for , if , the magnitude of is less than i.e. , is the abscissa of absolute convergence.

The basic operations of the dimensional transform which are useful in the transformation in this paper are summarized as follows:

2.2. Overview of Differential Transform Method (DTM)

The differential transform method construct a semi-analytical numerical techniques that makes use of Taylor series for the solution of differential equations in the form of polynomials. [28].

2.3. Basic Idea of the Laplace Differential Transform Method (LDTM)

To illustrate the basic idea of this method, we consider the general form of one-dimensional nonlinear second order nonhomogeneous partial differential equations with variable coefficients of the form:
