Ordinary Differential Equations/d'Alembert
Appearance
The d'Alembert's Equation, which is sometimes called the Lagrange equation was solved by John Bernoulli before 1694, and d'Alembert studied its singular solutions in a 1748 publication. It is essentially an equation of the form
Where and are functions of .
Take the derivative
Now write this equation as
Then it is a linear equation with dependent variable x and independent variable <amth>y'</math>.
