solution
solve
\begin{align*} \frac {u_{xx}}{A}+\frac {u_{yy}}{B} & =-2\theta \\ Bu_{xx}+Au_{yy} & =-2\theta AB\\ & =C \end{align*}
Where \(C=-2\theta AB\) is a new constant. With boundary conditions
\begin{align*} u\left ( x,-b\right ) & =0\\ u\left ( x,b\right ) & =0\\ u\left ( -a,y\right ) & =0\\ u\left ( a,y\right ) & =0 \end{align*}
To simplify solution, shift the rectangle so its lower left corner on the origin. Let \(\tilde {x}=x+a\) , and \(\tilde {y}=y+b\) . The boundary conditions becomes
\begin{align*} u\left ( \tilde {x},0\right ) & =0\\ u\left ( \tilde {x},2b\right ) & =0\\ u\left ( 0,\tilde {y}\right ) & =0\\ u\left ( 2a,\tilde {y}\right ) & =0 \end{align*}
And the pde becomes \(Bu_{\tilde {x}\tilde {x}}+Au_{\tilde {y}\tilde {y}}=C\) . Instead of keep writing \(\tilde {x},\tilde {y}\) , will use \(x,y\) , but remember that these are shifted version. At the end, we shift back.
Hence the PDE to solve is \(Bu_{xx}+Au_{yy}=C\) with BC
\begin{align*} u\left ( x,0\right ) & =0\\ u\left ( x,2b\right ) & =0\\ u\left ( 0,y\right ) & =0\\ u\left ( 2a,y\right ) & =0 \end{align*}
Using eigenfunction expansion method. Let
\begin{equation} u\left ( x,y\right ) =\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }b_{n}\left ( y\right ) X_{n}\left ( x\right ) \tag {1}\end{equation}
Where \(X_{n}\left ( x\right ) \) is eigenfunctions for \(X^{\prime \prime }\left ( x\right ) +\lambda _{n}X\left ( x\right ) =0\) with boundary conditions \(X\left ( 0\right ) =X\left ( 2a\right ) =0\) . This has eigenfunctions as \(X_{n}\left ( x\right ) =\sin \left ( \sqrt {\lambda _{n}}x\right ) \) with eigenvalues \(\lambda _{n}=\left ( \frac {n\pi }{2a}\right ) ^{2}\) for \(n=1,2,\cdots \) .
Substituting (1) into the PDE \(Bu_{xx}+Au_{yy}=C\) gives
\[ B\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }b_{n}\left ( y\right ) X_{n}^{\prime \prime }\left ( x\right ) +A\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }b_{n}^{\prime \prime }\left ( y\right ) X_{n}\left ( x\right ) =C \]
Expanding \(C\) (a constant) as Fourier sine series the above becomes
\[ B\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }b_{n}\left ( y\right ) X_{n}^{\prime \prime }\left ( x\right ) +A\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }b_{n}^{\prime \prime }\left ( y\right ) X_{n}\left ( x\right ) =\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }q_{n}X_{n}\left ( x\right ) \]
But \(X_{n}^{\prime \prime }\left ( x\right ) =-\lambda _{n}X_{n}\left ( x\right ) \) , hence the above becomes
\begin{align} -B\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\lambda _{n}b_{n}\left ( y\right ) X_{n}\left ( x\right ) +A\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }b_{n}^{\prime \prime }\left ( y\right ) X_{n}\left ( x\right ) & =\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }q_{n}X_{n}\left ( x\right ) \nonumber \\ Ab_{n}^{\prime \prime }\left ( y\right ) -B\lambda _{n}b_{n}\left ( y\right ) & =q_{n}\tag {1A}\end{align}
But
\begin{align*} C & =\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }q_{n}X_{n}\left ( x\right ) \\ \int _{0}^{2a}CX_{n}\left ( x\right ) dx & =q_{n}\int _{0}^{2a}X_{n}^{2}\left ( x\right ) dx\\ \int _{0}^{2a}C\sin \left ( \sqrt {\lambda _{n}}x\right ) dx & =q_{n}\int _{0}^{2a}\sin ^{2}\left ( \sqrt {\lambda _{n}}x\right ) dx\\ \frac {-C}{\sqrt {\lambda _{n}}}\left ( \left ( -1\right ) ^{n}-1\right ) & =q_{n}a\\ q_{n} & =\frac {-C}{a\sqrt {\lambda _{n}}}\left ( \left ( -1\right ) ^{n}-1\right ) \end{align*}
Hence (1A) becomes
\[ Ab_{n}^{\prime \prime }\left ( y\right ) -B\lambda _{n}b_{n}\left ( y\right ) =\frac {-C}{a\sqrt {\lambda _{n}}}\left ( \left ( -1\right ) ^{n}-1\right ) \]
This is standard second order linear ODE. The solution is
\[ b_{n}\left ( y\right ) =D_{n}e^{\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}y}+E_{n}e^{-\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}y}+\frac {C}{aB\lambda _{n}^{\frac {3}{2}}}\left ( \left ( -1\right ) ^{n}-1\right ) \]
Using the above in (1) gives the solution
\begin{equation} u\left ( x,y\right ) =\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\left ( D_{n}e^{\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}y}+E_{n}e^{-\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}y}+\frac {C}{aB\lambda _{n}^{\frac {3}{2}}}\left ( \left ( -1\right ) ^{n}-1\right ) \right ) X_{n}\left ( x\right ) \tag {1A}\end{equation}
We now need to find \(D_{n},E_{n}\) .
Case \(n\) even
When \(n\) is even \(\left ( \left ( -1\right ) ^{n}-1\right ) =0\) and the solution (1A) becomes
\[ u\left ( x,y\right ) =\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\left ( D_{n}e^{\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}y}+E_{n}e^{-\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}y}\right ) X_{n}\left ( x\right ) \]
At \(y=0\) the above gives
\[ 0=\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\left ( D_{n}+E_{n}\right ) \sin \left ( \sqrt {\lambda _{n}}x\right ) \]
Therefore
\begin{equation} D_{n}+E_{n}=0\tag {2}\end{equation}
And at \(y=2b\)
\[ 0=\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\left ( D_{n}e^{\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}2b}+E_{n}e^{-\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}2b}\right ) \sin \left ( \sqrt {\lambda _{n}}x\right ) \]
Therefore
\begin{equation} D_{n}e^{\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}2b}+E_{n}e^{-\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}2b}=0\tag {3}\end{equation}
From (2,3) we see that \(D_{n}=E_{n}=0\) , Hence \(u\left ( x,y\right ) =0\) when \(n\) even.
Case \(n\) odd
When \(n\) is odd \(\left ( \left ( -1\right ) ^{n}-1\right ) =-2\) and the solution (1A) becomes
\[ u\left ( x,y\right ) =\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\left ( D_{n}e^{\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}y}+E_{n}e^{-\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}y}-\frac {2C}{aB\lambda _{n}^{\frac {3}{2}}}\right ) X_{n}\left ( x\right ) \]
At \(y=0\) the above gives
\[ 0=\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\left ( D_{n}+E_{n}-\frac {2C}{aB\lambda _{n}^{\frac {3}{2}}}\right ) \sin \left ( \sqrt {\lambda _{n}}x\right ) \]
Therefore
\begin{equation} D_{n}+E_{n}-\frac {2C}{aB\lambda _{n}^{\frac {3}{2}}}=0\tag {4}\end{equation}
And at \(y=2b\)
\[ 0=\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\left ( D_{n}e^{\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}2b}+E_{n}e^{-\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}2b}-\frac {2C}{aB\lambda _{n}^{\frac {3}{2}}}\right ) \sin \left ( \sqrt {\lambda _{n}}x\right ) \]
Therefore
\begin{equation} D_{n}e^{\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}2b}+E_{n}e^{-\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}2b}-\frac {2C}{aB\lambda _{n}^{\frac {3}{2}}}=0\tag {5}\end{equation}
Solving (4,5) for \(D_{n},E_{n}\) gives
\begin{align*} D_{n} & =\frac {2C}{aB\lambda _{n}^{\frac {3}{2}}}\frac {1}{1+e^{\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}2b}}\\ E_{n} & =\frac {2C}{aB\lambda _{n}^{\frac {3}{2}}}\frac {e^{\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}2b}}{1+e^{\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}2b}}\end{align*}
Therefore the final solution from (1A) becomes
\begin{align*} u\left ( x,y\right ) & =\sum _{n=1,3,5,\cdots }^{\infty }\left ( D_{n}e^{\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}y}+E_{n}e^{-\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}y}-\frac {2C}{aB\lambda _{n}^{\frac {3}{2}}}\right ) X_{n}\left ( x\right ) \\ & =\sum _{n=1,3,5,\cdots }^{\infty }\left ( \left ( \frac {2C}{aB\lambda _{n}^{\frac {3}{2}}}\frac {1}{1+e^{\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}2b}}\right ) e^{\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}y}+\left ( \frac {2C}{aB\lambda _{n}^{\frac {3}{2}}}\frac {e^{\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}2b}}{1+e^{\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}2b}}\right ) e^{-\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}y}-\frac {2C}{aB\lambda _{n}^{\frac {3}{2}}}\right ) \sin \left ( \sqrt {\lambda _{n}}x\right ) \end{align*}
Where \(\lambda _{n}=\left ( \frac {n\pi }{2a}\right ) ^{2}\) . Switching back to original coordinates using \(\tilde {x}=x+a\) , and \(\tilde {y}=y+b\) , then the above is
\[ u\left ( x,y\right ) =\sum _{n=1,3,5,\cdots }^{\infty }\left ( \left ( \frac {2C}{aB\lambda _{n}^{\frac {3}{2}}}\frac {1}{1+e^{\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}2b}}\right ) e^{\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}\left ( y+b\right ) }+\left ( \frac {2C}{aB\lambda _{n}^{\frac {3}{2}}}\frac {e^{\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}2b}}{1+e^{\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}2b}}\right ) e\left ( ^{-\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}y+b}\right ) -\frac {2C}{aB\lambda _{n}^{\frac {3}{2}}}\right ) \sin \left ( \sqrt {\lambda _{n}}\left ( x+a\right ) \right ) \]
Where \(C=-2\theta AB\) , hence
\begin{align*} u\left ( x,y\right ) & =\sum _{n=1,3,5,\cdots }^{\infty }\left ( \left ( \frac {-4\theta AB}{aB\lambda _{n}^{\frac {3}{2}}}\frac {1}{1+e^{\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}2b}}\right ) e^{\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}\left ( y+b\right ) }+\left ( \frac {-4\theta AB}{aB\lambda _{n}^{\frac {3}{2}}}\frac {e^{\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}2b}}{1+e^{\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}2b}}\right ) e^{-\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}\left ( y+b\right ) }+\frac {4\theta AB}{aB\lambda _{n}^{\frac {3}{2}}}\right ) \sin \left ( \sqrt {\lambda _{n}}\left ( x+a\right ) \right ) \\ & =\sum _{n=1,3,5,\cdots }^{\infty }\left ( \left ( \frac {-4\theta A}{a\lambda _{n}^{\frac {3}{2}}}\frac {1}{1+e^{\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}2b}}\right ) e^{\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}\left ( y+b\right ) }+\left ( \frac {-4\theta A}{a\lambda _{n}^{\frac {3}{2}}}\frac {e^{\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}2b}}{1+e^{\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}2b}}\right ) e^{-\sqrt {\frac {B}{A}\lambda _{n}}\left ( y+b\right ) }+\frac {4\theta A}{a\lambda _{n}^{\frac {3}{2}}}\right ) \sin \left ( \sqrt {\lambda _{n}}\left ( x+a\right ) \right ) \end{align*}

Hand
solution
Solve Poisson PDE
\[ \frac {\partial ^{2}f}{\partial x^{2}}+\frac {\partial ^{2}f}{\partial y^{2}}=6y \]
The solution is
\begin{equation} f=f_{h}+f_{p}\tag {1}\end{equation}
Where \(f_{h}\) is the homogenous solution to Laplace \(\frac {\partial ^{2}f}{\partial x^{2}}+\frac {\partial ^{2}f}{\partial y^{2}}=0\) and \(f_{p}\) is a particular solution. The homogeneous solution is easily found as follows. Let
\[ f_{h}=F\left ( mx+y\right ) \]
Then \(\frac {\partial f_{h}}{\partial x}=mF^{\prime }\) and \(\frac {\partial ^{2}f_{h}}{\partial x^{2}}=m^{2}F^{\prime \prime }\) and \(\frac {\partial f_{h}}{\partial y}=F^{\prime }\) and \(\frac {\partial ^{2}f_{h}}{\partial y^{2}}=F^{\prime \prime }\) . Substituting these into \(\frac {\partial ^{2}f_{h}}{\partial x^{2}}+\frac {\partial ^{2}f_{h}}{\partial y^{2}}=0\) gives
\begin{align*} m^{2}F^{\prime \prime }+F^{\prime \prime } & =0\\ m^{2}+1 & =0\\ m & =\pm i \end{align*}
Since we assumed \(f_{h}=F\left ( mx+y\right ) \) , then the homogeneous solution is sum of two arbitrary functions (one for each root of \(m\) )
\[ f_{h}=F_{1}\left ( ix+y\right ) +F_{2}\left ( -ix+y\right ) \]
To find particular solution, let
\begin{equation} f_{p}=Ax^{n}y^{m}\tag {2}\end{equation}
Hence \(\frac {\partial f_{p}}{\partial x}=Anx^{n-1}y^{m}\) and \(\frac {\partial ^{2}f_{p}}{\partial x^{2}}=An\left ( n-1\right ) x^{n-2}y^{m}\) and \(\frac {\partial f_{p}}{\partial y}=Ax^{n}my^{m-1}\) and \(\frac {\partial ^{2}f_{p}}{\partial y^{2}}=Ax^{n}m\left ( m-1\right ) y^{m-2}\) . Substituting these into \(\frac {\partial ^{2}f_{p}}{\partial x^{2}}+\frac {\partial ^{2}f_{p}}{\partial y^{2}}=6y\) gives
\begin{align*} An\left ( n-1\right ) x^{n-2}y^{m}+Ax^{n}m\left ( m-1\right ) y^{m-2} & =6y\\ y^{m}\left ( An\left ( n-1\right ) x^{n-2}+Ax^{n}m\left ( m-1\right ) y^{-2}\right ) & =6y \end{align*}
Comparing terms, then \(m=1\) and
\[ An\left ( n-1\right ) x^{n-2}+Ax^{n}m\left ( m-1\right ) y^{-2}=6 \]
Since \(m=1\) then the above simplifies to
\[ An\left ( n-1\right ) x^{n-2}=6 \]
Since there is no \(x\) in RHS, then \(n-2=0\) or \(n=2\) and the above becomes
\begin{align*} 2A\left ( 2-1\right ) & =6\\ A & =3 \end{align*}
Hence (2) becomes
\[ f_{p}=Ax^{n}y^{m}=3x^{2}y \]
And the complete solution (1) is
\begin{align*} f\left ( x,y\right ) & =f_{h}+f_{p}\\ & =F_{1}\left ( ix+y\right ) +F_{2}\left ( -ix+y\right ) +3x^{2}y \end{align*}
