D.15.10.13 setinitials

Usage:

setinitials(V,D[,P]); V,D,P are lists with strings as elements

Return:

no return value: sets the dependence order of the occuring derivatives, constructs the suitable ring to compute in containing user chosen parameters, sets new basering

Note:

P is optional, used to introduce some additional parameters into the ring. The Sine and Cosine values needed for the fourier transformation are symbolically introduced under the names string(c)+nameof(variable), i.e. if x is any spatial variable then cx:=cosine(dx*ksi), when regarding the fourier transform after ksi (for sine respectively). Artificial parameters I,T,Px,Py are introduced for the later eigenvalue analysis. Variables can be transformed into parameters of similar name
