As far as I can tell, no one has asked this.
I've been asked to compute the double integral of a function, and also the same double integral but with the order of integration swapped (i.e: first integrate for dydx, then dxdy). Here is my code:
%Define function to be integrated
f = #(x,y) y^2*cos(x);
%First case. Integration order: dydx
ymin = #(x) cos(x);
I = integral2(f,ymin,1,0,2*pi)
%Second case. Integration order: dxdy
xmin = #(y) asin(y)+2*pi/2;
xmax = #(y) asin(y)-pi/2;
B = integral2(f,xmin,xmax,-1,1)
The error I'm getting is this:
Error using integral2 (line 71)
XMIN must be a floating point scalar.
Error in EngMathsA1Q1c (line 5)
I = integral2(f,ymin,1,0,2*pi)
I'm sure my mistake is something simple, but I've never used Integral2 before and I'm lost for answers. Thank you.
Per the integral2 documentation, the variable limits are given as the second pair of limits. So your first integral should be
% Define function to be integrated
f = #(x,y) y.^2.*cos(x);
% First case. Integration order: dydx
ymin = #(x) cos(x);
I = integral2(f,0,2*pi,ymin,1);
The set of constant limits always goes first, and Matlab assumes the first argument of f is associated with the first set of limits while the second argument of f is associated with the second set of limits, which may be a function of the first argument.
I point out that second part because if you wish to switch the order of integration, you also need to switch the order of the inputs of f accordingly. Consider the following example:
fun = #(x,y) 1./( sqrt(2*x + y) .* (1 + 2*x + y).^2 )
A nice little function that is not symmetric in its arguments (i.e., fun(x,y) ~= fun(y,x)). Let's integrate this over an elongated triangle in the first quadrant with vertices at (0,0), (2,0), and (0,1). Then integrating with dA == dy dx, we have
>> format('long');
>> ymax = #(x) 1 - x/2;
>> q = integral2(fun,0,2,0,ymax)
q =
0.220241017339352
Cool. Now let's integrate with dA == dx dy:
>> xmax = #(y) 2*(1-y);
>> q = integral2(fun,0,1,0,xmax)
q =
0.241956050772765
Oops, that's not equal to the first calculation! That's because fun is defined with x as the first argument and y as the second, but the previous call to integral2 is implying that y is the first argument to fun, and it has constant limits of 0 and 1. How do we fix this? Simply define a new function that flips the arguments:
>> fun2 = #(y,x) fun(x,y);
>> q = integral2(fun2,0,1,0,xmax)
q =
0.220241017706984
And all's right with the world. (Although you may notice small differences between the two correct answers due to the error tolerances of integral2, which can be adjusted via options per the documentation.)
The error states that you can't pass in a function for the limits of integration. You need to specify a scalar value for each limit of integration. Also, there are some errors in the dimensions/operations of the function. Try this:
%Define function to be integrated
f = #(x,y) y.^2.*cos(x);%changed to .^ and .*
%First case. Integration order: dydx
%ymin = #(x) cos(x);
I = integral2(f,-1,1,0,2*pi)%use scalar values for limits of integration
%Second case. Integration order: dxdy
%xmin = #(y) asin(y)+2*pi/2;
%xmax = #(y) asin(y)-pi/2;
B = integral2(f,0,2*pi,-1,1)% same issue, must use scalars
How can I use matlab to solve the following Ordinary Differential Equations?
x''/y = y''/x = -( x''y + 2x'y' + xy'')
with two known points, such as t=0: x(0)= x0, y(0) = y0; t=1: x(1) = x1, y(1) = y1 ?
It doesn't need to be a complete formula if it is difficult. A numerical solution is ok, which means, given a specific t, I can get the value of x(t) and y(t).
If matlab is hard to do this, mathematica is also OK. But as I am not familiar with mathematica, so I would prefer matlab if possible.
Looking forward to help, thanks!
I asked the same question on stackexchange, but haven't get good answer yet.

Hope I can get problem solved here!
What I have tried is:
---------MATLAB
syms t
>> [x, y] = dsolve('(D2x)/y = -(y*D2x + 2Dx*Dy + x*D2y)', '(D2y)/x = -(y*D2x + 2Dx*Dy + x*D2y)','t')
Error using sym>convertExpression (line 2246)
Conversion to 'sym' returned the MuPAD error: Error: Unexpected 'identifier'.
[line 1, col 31]
Error in sym>convertChar (line 2157)
s = convertExpression(x);
Error in sym>convertCharWithOption (line 2140)
s = convertChar(x);
Error in sym>tomupad (line 1871)
S = convertCharWithOption(x,a);
Error in sym (line 104)
S.s = tomupad(x,'');
Error in dsolve>mupadDsolve (line 324)
sys = [sys_sym sym(sys_str)];
Error in dsolve (line 186)
sol = mupadDsolve(args, options);
--------MATLAB
Also, I tried to add conditions, such as x(0) = 2, y(0)=8, x(1) = 7, y(1) = 18, and the errors are still similar. So what I think is that this cannot be solve by dsolve function.
So, again, the key problem is, given two known points, such as when t=0: x(0)= x0, y(0) = y0; t=1: x(1) = x1, y(1) = y1 , how I get the value of x(t) and y(t)?
Update:
I tried ode45 functions. First, in order to turn the 2-order equations into 1-order, I set x1 = x, x2=y, x3=x', x4=y'. After some calculation, the equation becomes:
x(1)' = x(3) (1)
x(2)' = x(4) (2)
x(3)' = x(2)/x(1)*(-2*x(1)*x(3)*x(4)/(1+x(1)^2+x(2)^2)) (3)
x(4)' = -2*x(1)*x(3)*x(4)/(1+x(1)^2+x(2)^2) (4)
So the matlab code I wrote is:
myOdes.m
function xdot = myOdes(t,x)
xdot = [x(3); x(4); x(2)/x(1)*(-2*x(1)*x(3)*x(4)/(1+x(1)^2+x(2)^2)); -2*x(1)*x(3)*x(4)/(1+x(1)^2+x(2)^2)]
end
main.m
t0 = 0;
tf = 1;
x0 = [2 3 5 7]';
[t,x] = ode45('myOdes',[t0,tf],x0);
plot(t,x)
It can work. However, actually this is not right. Because, what I know is that when t=0, the value of x and y, which is x(1) and x(2); and when t=1, the value of x and y. But the ode functions need the initial value: x0, I just wrote the condition x0 = [2 3 5 7]' randomly to help this code work. So how to solve this problem?
UPDATE:
I tried to use the function bvp4c after I realized that it is a boundary value problem and the following is my code (Suppose the two boundry value conditions are: when t=0: x=1, y=3; when t=1, x=6, y=9. x is x(1), y is x(2) ):
1. bc.m
function res = bc(ya,yb)
res = [ ya(1)-1; ya(2)-3; yb(1) - 6; yb(2)-9];
end
2. ode.m
function dydx = ode(t,x)
dydx = [x(3); x(4); x(2)/x(1)*(-2*x(1)*x(3)*x(4)/(1+x(1)^2+x(2)^2)); -2*x(1)*x(3)*x(4)/(1+x(1)^2+x(2)^2)];
end
3. mainBVP.m
solinit = bvpinit(linspace(0,6,10),[1 0 -1 0]);
sol = bvp4c(#ode,#bc,solinit);
t = linspace(0,6);
x = deval(sol,t);
plot(t,x(1,:));
hold on
plot(t,x(2,:));
plot(t,x(3,:));
plot(t,x(4,:));
x(1,:)
x(2,:)
It can work, but I don't know whether it is right. I will check it again to make sure it is the right code.
As mentioned, this isn't a math site, so try to give code or something showing some effort.
However, the first step you need to do is turn the DE into normal form (i.e., no 2nd derivatives). You do this by making a separate variable equal to the derivative. Then, you use
syms x y % or any variable instead of x or y
to define variables as symbolic. Use matlabfunction to create a symbolic function based on these variables. Finally, you can use the ode45 function to solve the symbolic function while passing variable values. I recommend you look up the full documentation in matlab in order to understand it better, but here is a very basic syntax:
MyFun= matlabFunction(eq,'vars',{x,y});
[xout,yout]=ode45(#(x,Y) MyFun(variables),[variable values],Options);
Hopefully this puts you in the right direction, so try messing around with it and provide code if you need more help.
EDIT:
This is how I would solve the problem. Note: I don't really like the matlabFunction creator but this is simply a personal preference for various reasons I won't go into.
% Seperate function of the first order state equations
function dz = firstOrderEqns(t,z)
dz(4,1) = 0;
dz(1) = -2.*z(3).*z(1).*z(4)./(1 + z(4).^2 + z(2).^2);
dz(2) = z(1);
dz(3) = -2.*z(2).*z(3).*z(1)./(1 + z(4).^2 + z(2).^2);
dz(4) = z(3);
end
% runfirstOrderEqns
%% Initial conditions i.e. # t=0
z1 = 5; % dy/dt = 5 (you didn't specify these initial conditions,
% these will depend on the system which you didn't really specify
z2 = 0; % y = 0
z3 = 5; % dx/dt = 5 (The same as for z1)
z4 = 0; % x = 0
IC = [z1, z2, z3, z4];
%% Run simulation
% Time vector: i.e closed interval [0,20]
t = [0,20]; % This is where you have to know about your system
% i.e what is it's time domain.
% Note: when a system has unstable poles at
% certain places the solver can crash you need
% to understand these.
% using default settings (See documentation ode45 for 'options')
[T,Y] = ode45(#firstOrderEqns,t,IC);
%% Plot function
plot(T,Y(:,1),'-',T,Y(:,2),'-.',T,Y(:,3),':',T,Y(:,4),'.');
legend('dy/dt','y','dx/dt','x')
As in my comments I have made a lot of assumtions that you need to fix for example, you didn't specify what the initial conditions for the first derivatives of the states are i.e. (z1, z3) which is important for the response of the system. Also you didn't specify the time interval your interested for the simulation etc.
Note: The second m file can be used with any state function in the correct format

I don't know how to calculate the integral of the sum of function handles in a cell. Please see the below examples:
f{1} = #(x) x;
f{2} = #(x) x^2;
g = #(x) sum(cellfun(#(y) y(x), f));
integral(#(x) exp(g), -3,3);
Error: Input function must return 'double' or 'single' values. Found 'function_handle'.
PS: please don't change the formula, because this is just an example. My real problem is far more complicated than this. It has log and exp of this sum (integral(log(sum), -inf, inf)). So I can't break them up to do the integral individually and sum the integrals.I need to use sum(cellfun). Thank you.
Version: Matlab R2012a
Can anyone help me? Really appreciate.
You cannot add function handles, so anything that tries f{1}+f{2}+... would give an error.
But you can compute the integral of the sums like this, evaluating the function values one at a time and adding up the results:
function cellsum
f{1} = #(x) x;
f{2} = #(x) x.^2;
integral(#(x)addfcn(f,x), -3, 3)
end
function s = addfcn(f,x)
s = zeros(size(x));
for k = 1:length(f)
s = s + f{k}(x);
end
end
Note that x will usually be a vector when the integral command calls your functions with it. So your function definitions should be vectorized, .i.e., x.^2 instead of x^2, etc.
I have a code segment as follows:
f = #(x) [x(1)^2 ; x(2)^2]
X = [2; 3]
When I type f(X), I simply obtain the following:
f(X)
ans =
4
9
Now, think that there is a for loop going from 1 to 2. According to value of loop, I want to extract the row which is the value of loop. For instance:
for i=1:2
when i=1 it will extract 1st element, which is: 4
when i=2 it will extract 2nd element, which is: 9
end
I did this by the following:
for i=1:2
X1 = f(X)
Result = X1(i)
end
This works perfectly well. However, I do not want to define such intermediate variables. Is it possible directly to extract the certain row of the function?
Another way of doing is is to create a unit vector and multiply the function itself, but I do not want this as well. What I mean is the following:
when i=1; unit = [1 0]
[1 0]*[2;4] = 2
when i=2; unit = [0 1]
[0 1]*[2;4] = 4
This also works well but I do not want this.
I just want to call directly f(X) but give me the row desired.
Thanks in advance!
You are defining your function as :
f = #(x) [x(1)^2 ; x(2)^2]
If you give x as a column vector, it would read row-wise.
Thus, your row-indexing method of i=1,2 won't work, because the function would need first and second row with x(1) and x(2) at the same time.
I think, the best you can do is this -
X1 = f(X)
for i=1:2
X1(i)
end
The best practice to solve your problem and still access each output from using the function on each element of X would be something like this -
f = #(x) x.^2;
X = [2 3];
X1 = f(X);
for i=1:numel(X)
Result = X1(i);
%// Do something with Result
end
Edit 1
f = #(x) x.^2;
X = [2 3];
for i=1:numel(X)
Result = f(X(i)) %%// Instead of f(X,1) you need f(X(1)) and so on..
%// Do something with Result
end
Here's another possible way of doing it:
f = #(x,n) [x(n).^2];
Where n is the indices of x you want returned.
x = [3 5];
f(x,1:2)
ans =
9 25
or
f(x,2)
ans =
25
I am trying to write a function that implements Newton's method in two dimensions and whilst I have done this, I have to now adjust my script so that the input parameters of my function must be f(x) in a column vector, the Jacobian matrix of f(x), the initial guess x0 and the tolerance where the function f(x) and its Jacobian matrix are in separate .m files.
As an example of a script I wrote that implements Newton's method, I have:
n=0; %initialize iteration counter
eps=1; %initialize error
x=[1;1]; %set starting value
%Computation loop
while eps>1e-10&n<100
g=[x(1)^2+x(2)^3-1;x(1)^4-x(2)^4+x(1)*x(2)]; %g(x)
eps=abs(g(1))+abs(g(2)); %error
Jg=[2*x(1),3*x(2)^2;4*x(1)^3+x(2),-4*x(2)^3+x(1)]; %Jacobian
y=x-Jg\g; %iterate
x=y; %update x
n=n+1; %counter+1
end
n,x,eps %display end values
So with this script, I had implemented the function and the Jacobian matrix into the actual script and I am struggling to work out how I can actually create a script with the input parameters required.
Thanks!
If you don't mind, I'd like to restructure your code so that it is more dynamic and more user friendly to read.
Let's start with some preliminaries. If you want to make your script truly dynamic, then I would recommend that you use the Symbolic Math Toolbox. This way, you can use MATLAB to tackle derivatives of functions for you. You first need to use the syms command, followed by any variable you want. This tells MATLAB that you are now going to treat this variable as "symbolic" (i.e. not a constant). Let's start with some basics:
syms x;
y = 2*x^2 + 6*x + 3;
dy = diff(y); % Derivative with respect to x. Should give 4*x + 6;
out = subs(y, 3); % The subs command will substitute all x's in y with the value 3
% This should give 2*(3^2) + 6*3 + 3 = 39
Because this is 2D, we're going to need 2D functions... so let's define x and y as variables. The way you call the subs command will be slightly different:
syms x, y; % Two variables now
z = 2*x*y^2 + 6*y + x;
dzx = diff(z, 'x'); % Differentiate with respect to x - Should give 2*y^2 + 1
dzy = diff(z, 'y'); % Differentiate with respect to y - Should give 4*x*y + 6
out = subs(z, {x, y}, [2, 3]); % For z, with variables x,y, substitute x = 2, y = 3
% Should give 56
One more thing... we can place equations into vectors or matrices and use subs to simultaneously substitute all values of x and y into each equation.
syms x, y;
z1 = 3*x + 6*y + 3;
z2 = 3*y + 4*y + 4;
f = [z1; z2];
out = subs(f, {x,y}, [2, 3]); % Produces a 2 x 1 vector with [27; 25]
We can do the same thing for matrices, but for brevity I won't show you how to do that. I will defer to the code and you can see it then.
Now that we have that established, let's tackle your code one piece at a time to truly make this dynamic. Your function requires the initial guess x0, the function f(x) as a column vector, the Jacobian matrix as a 2 x 2 matrix and the tolerance tol.
Before you run your script, you will need to generate your parameters:
syms x y; % Make x,y symbolic
f1 = x^2 + y^3 - 1; % Make your two equations (from your example)
f2 = x^4 - y^4 + x*y;
f = [f1; f2]; % f(x) vector
% Jacobian matrix
J = [diff(f1, 'x') diff(f1, 'y'); diff(f2, 'x') diff(f2, 'y')];
% Initial vector
x0 = [1; 1];
% Tolerance:
tol = 1e-10;
Now, make your script into a function:
% To run in MATLAB, do:
% [n, xout, tol] = Jacobian2D(f, J, x0, tol);
% disp('n = '); disp(n); disp('x = '); disp(xout); disp('tol = '); disp(tol);
function [n, xout, tol] = Jacobian2D(f, J, x0, tol)
% Just to be sure...
syms x, y;
% Initialize error
ep = 1; % Note: eps is a reserved keyword in MATLAB
% Initialize counter
n = 0;
% For the beginning of the loop
% Must transpose into a row vector as this is required by subs
xout = x0';
% Computation loop
while ep > tol && n < 100
g = subs(f, {x,y}, xout); %g(x)
ep = abs(g(1)) + abs(g(2)); %error
Jg = subs(J, {x,y}, xout); %Jacobian
yout = xout - Jg\g; %iterate
xout = yout; %update x
n = n + 1; %counter+1
end
% Transpose and convert back to number representation
xout = double(xout');
I should probably tell you that when you're doing computation using the Symbolic Math Toolbox, the data type of the numbers as you're calculating them are a sym object. You probably want to convert these back into real numbers and so you can use double to cast them back. However, if you leave them in the sym format, it displays your numbers as neat fractions if that's what you're looking for. Cast to double if you want the decimal point representation.
Now when you run this function, it should give you what you're looking for. I have not tested this code, but I'm pretty sure this will work.
Happy to answer any more questions you may have. Hope this helps.
Cheers!
