equation is an important second-order linear partial differential equation for the description of waves – as they occur in physics – such as sound waves‚ light waves and water waves. It arises in fields like acoustics‚ electromagnetic‚ and fluid dynamics. Historically‚ the problem of a vibrating string such as that of a musical instrument was studied by Jean le Rond d’Alembert‚ Leonhard Euler‚ Daniel Bernoulli‚ and Joseph-Louis Lagrange.
