I am trying to remember again the stuff I did about nonlinear differential equations.
I have
x ˙ = ( x 1 2 1 )
I want to solve this nonlinear differential equation and I know that the solution is:
x 1 ( t ) = x 1 ( 0 ) 1 x 1 ( 0 )
x 2 ( t ) = t + x 2 ( 0 )
I understand how to arrive to the expression of x 2 ( t ) but not to the one of x 1 ( t ).
If I integrate x ˙ 1 = x 1 2 I get
0 t x ˙ 1 ( τ ) d τ = 0 t x 1 2 ( τ )
which should give
x 1 ( t ) x 1 ( 0 ) = [ x 1 3 3 ] τ = 0 τ = t
which does not give: x 1 ( t ) = x 1 ( 0 ) 1 x 1 ( 0 )
Can you help me?
