Abstract

The main topic of this study is deriving solutions of linear PDEs that have no mixed derivatives, using the method of separation of variables. One seeks a solution of a PDE, involving n independent variables, in a form of a product or sum and converts the PDE into n solvable ordinary differential equations to build the general solution out of these particular solutions.
