A question using trapz integration

2 次查看(过去 30 天)
Hello all
I have a problem using the trapz integration. I’m trying to integrate this integral (in the attached file) using trapz twice when I’m trying to approximate the analytic solution to z = 0.
(For arctan(R/Z) far from pi/2 it is working ok). I’m taking z to be very small but final and it seems that the code I wrote doesn't handles it very well; I guess it is because tan diverges in pi/2.
(the analytic solution is pi*R^2)
Maybe there is another way to solve this problem?
Thanks
(In the next step I need to perform this integral where in the integrand I have a function which is dependent on theta and phi, And that is why I can’t just take the area of the circle)
The code I wrote:
theta_val_new = (round(linspace(0,pi./2,100).*100)/100)';
phi_val_new = linspace(0,2.*pi,120);
theta_val_mat = repmat(theta_val_new,1,120);
function_to_integrate = abs(tan(theta_val_mat)./(cos(theta_val_mat)).^2) .*(30./tan(theta_val_new(end,1))).^2;
energy1 = (trapz(phi_val_new,trapz(theta_val_new,function_to_integrate))

Hi Torsten
I can't that because I need to integrate over the gamma function, and it is numerically calculated (from anther code I've created) for theta and phi. I can't express gamma in Polaric coordinate system, only in the azimuthal part of the sperical coordinates system.
the real integral i need to calculate is:

I see you added a second integral that can't be integrated exactly. Do you know if gamma is 0 at theta = pi/2 (for all phi)? If it isn't, then that integral is unbounded since Rz/cos^2(arctan(R/z)) goes to infinity as z goes to 0.
If you do wish to do this integral numerically for other values of z I agree with Torsten that integral2 is a much better route.
