Introduction
A Cauchy–Euler differential equation is a type of linear differential equation of
the form:
Standard Second order Form :
If f(x) = 0 ; homogeneous equation.
If f(x) ≠ 0 ; non-homogeneous equation.
Method of Solution (Homogeneous Case)
• Substitution :
• Derivatives :
• Substitute into the equation :
=> r(r-1) + ar + b = 0
• Solve the auxiliary equation for r
Example (Homogeneous)
Solve:
+ 4 = 0 => r = 2,2
General Solution :
Non-Homogeneous Case & Applications
If f(x)≠0, solve:
•Complementary function (C.F.) — same method as homogeneous
case.
• Particular integral (P.I.) — use undetermined coefficients
or variation of parameters
Applications :
Physics (vibrations, wave motion).
Engineering (beam deflection)
Economics (scale-invariant models).
