Consider the numerical solution of

∫ ∫ f ( x, y )dxdy
y min x min
Let f ( x, y ) = y sin( x ) + x cos( y )
We write a function to calculate the double integral using the MATLAB
Inline function dblquad.

8. Solving ODE’s….
MATLAB has the capability to solve the first order differential
equations using numerical methods.
The functions used are ode23 and ode25
Both ode23 and ode25 work the same way except for the internal
algorithm that is being used.
Let us use ode45 in solving the Differential equations.
Department of Mechanical Engineering, LSU Session V
9. Format….
The format is as follows:
[t,y] = ode45(‘function_name’,tspan,y0)
function_name is the name of a function type file where the
differential equation is stored.
tspan is a vector specifying the initial and final values of
independent variable
y0 is a column vector containing the initial conditions
Results for the command are stored in vector y.
t is the vector of independent variable

10. Example….

condition:

y+ = y 0

0 1
We rewrite it as :
.
y = y

14. Non-homogenous ODE’s….
If the differential equation is not homogenous then we do the following:
.
y + = −t
y e 2
y (t = ) =
0 1
It is rewritten again as follows:
.
y = y + −t
− e 2
y (0) =1

All we need to do is change the function in the m-file ode1.m

The higher order differential equations can be converted to a
system of first order differential equations.

18. Equation of motion….
The equation of motion is as follows:
.. .
m x +c x +kx =0
x (t =0) =0.1
Now we need to change it to first order equation to solve it.
Rewriting the equation we get,
c k

32. Delay Differential Equations…
Ordinary differential equations (ODEs) and delay differential equations
(DDEs) are used to describe many phenomena of physical interest.
While ODEs contain derivatives which depend on the solution at the
present value of the independent variable (“time”), DDEs contain in
addition, derivatives which depend on the solution at previous times.
DDEs are a better approximation than ODEs to many physical systems.
