Yes, I have done the normal diffusion problem numerically, and I have the code, but I think you're looking to solve it yourself, right? Read up on NDSolve for partial differential equations in the Mathematica documentation.

Hello!

I am new to Mathematica and am trying to figure out if it can solve my problem:

I have a modified Diffusion equation:
dc/dt == D d^2c/dx^2 - r c exp(-n t)

c: concentration
D: Diffusion constant
r: reaction rate
n: time constant

What i need to do is to solve the equation and find a set of parameters to fit my experimental results.

Has anybody an idea if that's possible in mathematica and if so how to implement it?

Thanks!

Alex
