Loop animation with quiver plot

10 次查看(过去 30 天)
Hey guys. I am fairly new with matlab. Currently i am trying to animate the change of a velocity field in a fluid in time. The velocity field is dependent on depth (z) and distance (x). I would like to present the velocity field in a x/z coordinate system and by an animation show how it changes with time. I can plot the vector field by constant x with quiver(t,z,u,w). Is it possible to use a for-loop for the animation? I tried a lot of different solutions:
x=0
z=linspace(0, -h, 10);
t=linspace(0, 16*pi, 10);
for i=1:length(t)
for j=1:length(z)
u(j,i)=(pi*H)/T*(cosh(k)*(z(j)+h))/(sinh(k*h))*cos(omega*t(i)-k*x); %Particle velocity x direction
w(j,i)=-(pi*H)/T*(sinh(k)*(z(j)+h))/(sinh(k*h))*sin(omega*t(i)-k*x) %Particle velocity z direction
end
end
figure (4)
for t=linspace(0, 16*pi, 10);
for z=linspace(0, -h, 10);
quiver(x,z,u,w)
title('Velocity')
xlabel('Distance [m]') % x-axis label
ylabel('Depth [m]') % y-axis label
ylim([-h 10])
pause(1/60)
end
end

many parameters are not defined.....give the values...it is easy to put it in a loop..

All values are defined in the document. I can easily plot the vector field components (u an w) in a time vs. depth diagram for a constant x (x=0) - as done in the attached file. The loop thing just seems not to be able to run the quiver plot in a x vs. depth for somehow.I want matlab to update the attached diagram by the time t, so that the vector field changes by time.

Every time that you want to update the figure, you need to call the drawnow function. You won't probably be able to get a framerate of 60fps, but you may speed up the code by getting rid of the xlabel title functions.
If you want to generate a video, you may have a look at getframe.
