Consider the diffusion equation on (0, 1) with the Robin boundary condi- tions ux(0, t) - aou(0, t) = 0 and ux(l, t) + a₁u(l, t) = 0. If a > 0 and a > 0, use the energy method to show that the endpoints contribute to the decrease of fu²(x, t) dx. (This is interpreted to mean that part of the "energy" is lost at the boundary, so we call the boundary conditions "radiating" or "dissipative.")

Question

[Second Order Equations] How do you solve this?

8. Consider the diffusion equation on (0, 1) with the Robin boundary condi-
tions ux(0, t) - aou(0, t) = 0 and ux(1, t) + a₁u(l, t) = 0. If ao > 0 and
a₁ > 0, use the energy method to show that the endpoints contribute to
the decrease of fu²(x, t) dx. (This is interpreted to mean that part of
the "energy" is lost at the boundary, so we call the boundary conditions
"radiating" or "dissipative.")
