Biharmonic EquationThe differential equation obtained by applying the Biharmonic Operator and setting to zero.
 | (1) |
In Cartesian Coordinates, the biharmonic equation is
In Polar Coordinates (Kaplan 1984, p. 148)
For a radial function , the biharmonic equation becomes
Writing the inhomogeneous equation as
 | (5) |
we have
 | (6) |
 | (7) |
 | (8) |
 | (9) |
 | (10) |
Now use
 | (11) |
to obtain
 | (12) |
 | (13) |
The homogeneous biharmonic equation can be separated and solved in 2-D Bipolar Coordinates. References
