Second Order, Piecewise ODE help

9 次查看(过去 30 天)
I'm very new to MatLab and need to solve a second order ODE that equals a piecewise function. I've looked up how to solve a second order ODE with ode45 and how to solve a piecewise ODE, but I'm not sure how to combine them. Further, the IVP I need to solve does not have a y' value and I do not know how to deal with that.
The IVP is:
y'' + 4y = g(t), y(0)=y'(0)=0
where: g(t) = 0 in 0<=t<5; (t-5)/5 for 5<=t<10; 1 for t>=10
Thanks in advance, Logan

fun=@(t,y)[y(2);-4*y(1)];
y0=[0 0];
tspan=[0 5];
[T1,Y1]=ode45(fun,tspan,y0);
fun=@(t,y)[y(2);-4*y(1)+(t-5)/5;
y0=[Y1(end,1) Y1(end,2)];
tspan=[T1(end) 10];
[T2,Y2]=ode45(fun,tspan,y0);
fun=@(t,y)[y(2);-4*y(1)+1];
y0=[Y2(end,1) Y2(end,2)];
tspan=[T2(end) 20];
[T3,Y3]=ode45(fun,tspan,y0);
Now put T1, T2, T3 and Y1, Y2, Y3 together to get the result of your ODE on [0 20].
Best wishes

Thanks for the response, The issue is that the graph comes up with two functions for each piece instead of one. Any ideas on how to combine them?

Does this work ?
T=vertcat(T1(1:end),T2(2:end),T3(2:end));
Y=vertcat(Y1(1:end,1),Y2(2:end,1),Y3(2:end,1));
plot(T,Y:,1))
Best wishes
Torsten.

Yep, just made it plot(T,Y) and it worked perfectly :) you're my hero, thanks a lot
