Extract

In but a few cases are solutions of equations of the type

known, and even in the simplest cases the most general of the known solutions suffers from the disadvantage of being in a symbolic form. The equations to be studied in the present paper are those which can be derived from

by a change in the independent variable. This equation is the one which most naturally claims the attention of the investigator, after the equation of wave-motion

has been disposed of.
