解答
(a)
解法一
思路

从 x=eu 出发,先求 dxdu,再把对 x 的一阶、二阶导数都改写成对 u 的导数。最后代入原方程,并用 lnx=u。

Since x=eu,
dudx=dxdu=eu=xx1=e−u
Hence
dxdy==dudydxdue−ududy
For the second derivative,
dx2d2y====dxd(e−ududy)dud(e−ududy)dxdu(−e−ududy+e−udu2d2y)e−ue−2u(du2d2y−dudy)
Substitute into (I):
x2dx2d2y+3xdxdy−8y==e2ue−2u(du2d2y−dudy)+3eue−ududy−8ydu2d2y+2dudy−8y
Also,
4lnx=4ln(eu)=4u
Therefore
du2d2y+2dudy−8y=4u

思路

也可以先建立 dudy 和 dxdy 的关系,再反推出 x2dx2d2y。这种写法少用指数,代入时比较直接。

Since x=eu,
dudx=x
By the chain rule,
dudy==dxdydudxxdxdy
Differentiate again with respect to u:
du2d2y====dud(xdxdy)dudxdxdy+xdud(dxdy)xdxdy+x(dx2d2ydudx)xdxdy+x2dx2d2y
So
x2dx2d2y=du2d2y−dudy
and
3xdxdy=3dudy
Substituting into (I),
(du2d2y−dudy)+3dudy−8y=du2d2y+2dudy−8y=4ln(eu)4u
(b)

思路

(II) 是常系数二阶非齐次微分方程。右边是一次多项式 4u,所以特解尝试 au+b。

For the complementary function,
m2+2m−8=(m+4)(m−2)=m=00−4, 2
Thus
yc=Ae−4u+Be2u
Try
yp=au+b
Then
yp′=a,yp′′=0
Substitute into (II):
0+2a−8(au+b)=−8au+(2a−8b)=4u4u
Compare coefficients:
−8a=2a−8b=4,0
So
a=−21,b=−81
Therefore
y=Ae−4u+Be2u−21u−81
(c)
解法一
思路
展开
把 u=lnx 代回 (b)。同时 e2u=x2,e−4u=x−4。

Since u=lnx,
e−4u=e2u=x−4,x2
Therefore
y=Ax−4+Bx2−21lnx−81
