Matlab Function Ode45

The Matlab function ode45 numerically integrates differential equations. It takes in a function handle representing the differential equation, a time span, initial conditions, and optional settings. Ode45 returns the solution at time points, and can handle events defined by a separate function. Options and behaviors are configured using odeset.

Function ode45
Numerical Integration of Differential Equations
Rakinder Kalsi and Katherine Lloyd


The function:

[T,Y,TE,YE,IE] = ode45(odefun,tspan,y0,options)

!"
odefun function handle to () from differential equation = ()
!"
tspan vector of interval of integration [! , ! ].
y0 initial conditions.
options structure created by function odeset.

T Time points the solution is returned for.
Y Solution ().
TE Time points at which events occur.
YE Value of () when events occur.
IE Array index of events in Y.

odeset

options = odeset('name1',value1,'name2',value2,...)

A list of options may be found on the odeset documentation.



Events

[value,isterminal,direction] = events(t,y)

value expression which = 0 when the event occurs.
isterminal takes value 1 (if integration stops at event) or 0 (if integration does not
stop.
direction Value determined by whether solution needs to be becoming more positive
(1), more negative (-1) or either (0) for the event to be recorded.

The same equation may be passed using either using an anonymous function or a
normal function. The two examples below integrate the same differential equation using
ode45 but pass the function using the two methods.

Example using anonymous function:

% Set up anonymous function. Part on right is f(y) from equation
dy_dt=f(y)
odefun=@(t,y) -t*y/sqrt(2-y^2);

% Set up time interval vector, inital conditions and options


tspan=[0,5];
y0=1;
options = odeset('Stats','on','OutputFcn',@odeplot);

% Run ode45. Returns solution Y and timepoints T


[T,Y] = ode45(odefun,tspan,y0,options);



Example using a normal function:

function f()
% set up time interval vector, initial conditions and options
tspan=[0,5];
y0=1;
options = odeset('Stats','on','OutputFcn',@odeplot);

% Run ode45
[T,Y] = ode45(@g,tspan,y0,options);
end

function dy_dt=g(t,y)
dy_dt= -t*y/sqrt(2-y^2);
end
